5.1 Flashcards
Network Address is the
first address in an address range is used to identify the network itself.
Broadcast Address is the
last address in the range is the broadcast address, and it is used to send messages to all hosts on the network.
Class A Address Range? Subnet Mask?
Address Range: 1–126;
1.0.0.0 to 126.255.255.255
Subnet Mask: 255.0.0.0
Class B Address Range? Subnet Mask?
Address Range:128–191 ;
128.0.0.0 to 191.255.255.255
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0;
Class C Address Range? Subnet Mask?
Address Range:192–223;
192.0.0.0 to 223.255.255.255
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Class D Address Range?
Address Range:224–239
Class E Address Range?
Address Range: 240–255
Classless addressing is made possible using
Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR).
CIDR allows you to use part of an octet for the network address. This is called
partial subnetting, or variable-length subnet masking (VLSM).
Static addressing is best used in the following situations:
On networks with a very small number of hosts.
Host that require a permanent address
If the DHCP Server is on a different subnet than the client, then the DHCP requests sent by the client will not reach the server unless
DHCP Relay Agent Has been setup
Record types - A, AAA
maps an IPv6 (128-bit) DNS hostname to an IP address.
SPF and DKIM records are quick
methods for improving your email delivery rates
An SRV record is used to (2)
- locate a particular host that provides a particular service
- SRV records are created automatically by Windows as needed.
The MX (Mail Exchanger) record identifies
servers that can be used to deliver email.
The CNAME (Canonical Name) record provides alternate
names to hosts that already have a host record.
The NS (Name Server) resource record identifies all
name servers that can perform name resolution for the zone.
A PTR record maps
an IP address to a hostname (in this way, it points to an A record).
When you Dual Stack the router will also need to be configured to run
both protocols, so that IPv4 messages are forwarded to the IPv4 server and IPv6 messages are forwarded to the IPv6 server.
Tunneling
To move IPv6 packets through the IPv4 network, they are encapsulated (or ‘wrapped’) within IPv4 packets that can be transferred through the IPv4 network.
IntraSite Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol (ISATAP) is used within
a private network to connect an IPv6 network to an IPv4 network
The ISATAP router is a
dual stack router running both IPv4 and IPv6.
