Your company has 2 routers. One router has 15 NICs and the other has 3. One network is shared between the 2 routers as a WAN link, therefore 16 of the total NICs are LAN link connections. Your company has been given from the INTERNIC community an IP network address of 128.0.0.0.           Would we be able to accommodate our network scenario if we keep the default subnet mask?   Question options:   -Yes -No, and therefore the subnet mask would be 255.255.255.0 if we wanted to accommodate the fewest number of subnets and the maximum number of host devices within each subnet? -No, and therefore the subnet mask would be 255.255.240.0 if we wanted to accommodate the fewest number of subnets and the maximum number of host devices within each subnet? -No, and therefore the subnet mask would be 255.255.248.0 if we wanted to accommodate the fewest number of subnets and the maximum number of host devices within each subnet?

Question

Your company has 2 routers. One router has 15 NICs and the other has 3. One network is shared between the 2 routers as a WAN link, therefore 16 of the total NICs are LAN link connections. Your company has been given from the INTERNIC community an IP network address of 128.0.0.0.

 

        Would we be able to accommodate our network scenario if we keep the default subnet mask?

 

Question options:

 

-Yes

-No, and therefore the subnet mask would be 255.255.255.0

if we wanted to accommodate the fewest number of subnets and the maximum number of host devices within each subnet?

-No, and therefore the subnet mask would be 255.255.240.0

if we wanted to accommodate the fewest number of subnets and the maximum number of host devices within each subnet?

-No, and therefore the subnet mask would be 255.255.248.0

if we wanted to accommodate the fewest number of subnets and the maximum number of host devices within each subnet?
