The ISP will provide MIL Ltd. with a /48 site prefix. Analyze which of the following scenarios will help Rodri in calculating the total number of possible subnets. MIL Ltd. can create up to 65,536 subnets. MIL Ltd. can create up to 256 subnets. MIL Ltd. can create only one single subnet. Rodri should use the 2n = Y formula to calculate the subnet.
MIL Ltd. can create up to 65,536 subnets.
Which of the following statements about MPLS (multiprotocol label switching) is not true? MPLS connections are highly scalable for businesses, which means a business can add more and longer connections for less cost than similarly scaled leased lines. Customers can prioritize their own traffic across the WAN (wide area network) according to QoS (quality of service) attributes, such as giving VoIP traffic higher priority over email traffic. The ability to label traffic offers more reliability, predictability, and security (when properly implemented) than when using cheaper connections over the open Internet. MPLS does not offer any decreased latency.
