Open the PT Activity. Perform the tasks in the activity instructions and then answer the question. Based on the DHCP configuration, how many active DHCP clients can be on the network at the same time?​ Chapter 4.3.3

10 - Because the address pool starts at 192.168.1.100 and ends at 192.168.1.109 the DHCP IP address pool size is 10 hosts. This means that there can only be up to 10 active hosts on the network at the same time.

What are three private IPv4 address? (Choose three.) Chapter 4

10.1.1.1 172.16.4.4 192.168.5.5 Refer to curriculum topic: 4.2.2 Private IP addresses are reserved to be exclusively used for internal networks and they cannot be used on the Internet. IPv4 addresses in the networks, 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/16-172.31.0.0/16, and 192.168.0.0/24-192.168.255.0/24, are designated as private IPv4 addresses.

How many binary bits exist within an IPv6 address? Chapter 4

128 Refer to curriculum topic: 4.5.1 IPv4 addressing space is exhausted by the rapid growth of the Internet and the devices connected to the Internet. IPv6 expands the IP addressing space by increasing the address length from 32 bits to 128 bits.

Which network does a host with IP address 172.32.65.13 reside on if it is using a default subnet mask? Chapter 4

172.32.0.0 Refer to curriculum topic: 4.2.1 In classful IPv4 addressing, a network with the first octet of 172 is a Class B network with the default subnet mask 255.255.0.0. Thus the network address is 172.32.0.0.

How many usable hosts are available given a Class C IP address with the default subnet mask? Chapter 4

254 The default subnet mask for a Class C network is 255.255.255.0. Thus there are 8 bits available for assigning host addresses. Eight bits in binary is equivalent to 256 in decimal (2^8 = 256). These numbers are from 0 to 255. However, host portion 0 is reserved for the network address, and the host address with all 1s (in this case 255) is reserved for the broadcast address. Therefore, usable host addresses are 256-2=254.
