Q

If a Subnet mask had a binary 1 in a bit position, the corresponding bit in the address is part of the _____ ID.

A

Network ID.

21
Q

If a Subnet mask had a binary 0 in a bit position, the corresponding bit in the address is part of the _____ ID.

22
Q

List four problems with Flat Network Design

A
  1. Security
  2. Troubleshooting
  3. Address Space Utilization
  4. Scalability.
23
Q

While Subnetting, what is the formula to determine the number of subnets gained.

A

Number of Subnets = 2<em>S</em> (Where S is the number of bits that are borrowed.)

24
Q

While Subnetting, What is the formula to determine the number of hosts per subnet?

A

Number of Hosts = 2<em>h</em> - 2 (Where h is the number of host bits that are remaining after bits are borrowed)

25
Go to [***IPv4 Subnetting Practice***](https://subnetipv4.com/) and complete 5 problems
Did you get them all right on the first try?
26
What is the purpose of VLSM?
Variable-Length Subnet Masks allow you to use more than one subnet mask within a network to efficiently use IP addresses.
27
What does NAT stand for?
Network Address Translation
28
What does CIDR stand for?
Classless Interdomain Routing
29
What is the range of IPv4 addresses in the **Public Class A**
1. 0.0.0 - 9.255.255.255 11. 0.0.0 - 126.255.255.255
30
What is the range of IPv4 addresses in the **Public Class B**
128. 0.0.0 - 172.15.255.255 172. 32.0.0 - 191.255.255.255
31
What is the range of IPv4 addresses in the **Public Class C**
192. 0.0.0 - 192.167.255.255 192. 169.0.0 - 223.255.255.255
32
What is a LIR
Local Internet Registry. - Businesses and home internet users receive their public IP from their LIR. (Typically their Internet Service Provider)
33
What is a RIR
Regional Internet Registry LIRs (ISPs) obtain IP address pools from their Regional Internet Registry.
34
**Private** IPv4 Address Range for a **Class A Network**
10.0.0.0/8
35
**Private** IPv4 Address Range for a **Class B Network**
172.16.0.0/12
36
**Private** IPv4 Address Range for a **Class C Network**
192.168.0.0/16
37
What is the Local Broadcast Address?
255.255.255.255
38
What is a Local Broadcast Address used for?
To communicate with all the devices on the local network. A local broadcast is never routed beyond the local network or subnet.
39
What is a Directed Broadcast Address used for and how is it different than a Local Broadcast Address?
Allows communication to all hosts in that network. It is the highest address in the network range A Directed Broadcast Address **can** be routed beyond the local network or subnet.
40
What is the Directed Broadcast Address?
It is the highest address in the network range.
41
What is a Local Loopback Address?
Any IPv4 address in the 127.0.0.0/8 range.
42
What is a Local Loopback Address used for?
Testing a device's network software and hardware.
43
What is an Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address?
An address in the 169.254.0.0/16 range.
44
What is an Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address used for?
Assigned to a host when neither a statically nor a dynamically configured IP address is found on startup.
45
What is an All Zeros Address
0.0.0.0
46
What is an All Zeros Address used for?
Indicates the host in "this" network and is used only as a source address.
47
Command to display all current TCP/IP network configuration values on a Windows computer.
ipconfig
48
Command to obtain the IPv4 address and other information on a Apple MAC.
ifconfig
