What are two things that could be attempted that would allow communications between the hosts?

Page2


Workstation A has been assigned an IP address of 192.0.2.24/28. Workstation B has been assigned an IP address of 192.0.2.100/28. The two workstations are connected with a straight- through cable. Attempts to ping between the hosts are unsuccessful. What are two things that could be attempted that would allow communications between the hosts? (Choose two.)

 

A. Replace the straight-through cable with a crossover cable.
B. Change the subnet mask of the hosts to /25.
C. Change the subnet mask of the hosts to /26.
D. Change the address of Workstation A to 192.0.2.15.
E. Change the address of Workstation B to 192.0.2.111.

Answer : A and B

Explanation:

A: Host to Host communication needs crossover cable.



Both hosts using 190.0.2.0 network with /28 mask.

Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.240

= 256 – 240 = 16

Network Address Broadcast Address
0 15
16 31 (Host A)
32 47
48 63
64 79
80 95
96 111 (Host B)
112 127
128 143
144 159
160 175


Option D and E are not possible: because both are broadcast addresses.



In case we use /26 instead of /28  then

Network Address Broadcast Address
0 63 (Host A)
64 127 (Host B)
128 191
192 255

C: Now also Host A and Host B belongs to different subnets.



In case we use /25 instead of /28 then

Network Address Broadcast Address
0 128 (Host A & Host B)
128 255

B: If we use /25, both Host A and Host B belongs same subnet

CCNA EIGRP Simulation (NEW)

After adding Interior router, no routing updates are being exchanged between Perimeter and the new location. All other inter connectivity and Internet access for the existing locations of the company are working properly. The Task is to identify the fault(s) and correct the router configurations to provide full connectivity between the routers. Access to the router CLI can be gained by clicking on the appropriate host. All passwords on all routers are cisco. IP Address are listed in the chart below Steps Remove invalid Autonomous System Number and add the correct Autonomous System Number Interior router. The Autonomous System Number is found in the topology: Add the network address of Fa0/0 interface of Perimeter router in EIGRP configuration. Because EIGRP neighbor relationship is not possible without the configuring connected interfaces. Answer Commands First we shou...
