So what we need to do is convert each number into binary and then use the number defined by the subnet mask to pick out the nth most significant bits and then convert the number back to decimal, followed by checking that number against the provided table.
135.46.63.10. In binary this is 10000111.00101110.00111111.00001010. The 135.46 preface points us to one of the Interfaces on the table, which both have a subnet mask of /22. The 22 MSB's of the binary are 10000111.00101110.00111100.00000000. Back to decimal, this is 135.46.60.0, which matches Interface 1, so it is routed there.
135.46.57.14 in binary is 10000111.00101110.00111001.00001110. Again the prefix points us to one of the Interfaces, so we take the 22 MSB's, or 10000111.00101110.00111000.00000000. Back to decimal, this is 135.46.56.0, which points to Interface 0, so that’s where it is routed.
135.46.52.2. In binary this is 10000111.00101110.00110100.00000010. Again, we are looking at one of the Interfaces, so we take the 22 MSB’s, which …show more content…

Give one reason why PPP uses byte stuffing instead of bit stuffing? Tanenbaum(2011) states that the primary reason behind this is that PPP is byte-oriented. While HDLC is still in use to a limited extent, it was created before the Internet as part of the OSI model. The internet itself is byte-oriented, so it follows that PPP (as a protocol designed for the internet) would use byte stuffing instead of bit stuffing.
