17
Q

Which of the following will allow subnets to be further subdivided into smaller and smaller groupings until each subnet is about the same size as the necessary IP address space?

A

VLSM (Variable Length Subnet Mask)

is a subnetting method that allows subnets to be further subdivided into smaller groupings until each subnet is about the same size as the needed IP address space.

18
Q

A

Classless Addressing

21
Q

Analyze which of the following is true about a default VLAN.

a. Ports in default VLAN can be reassigned to other VLANs.
b. To protect a network from unauthorized traffic, a default VLAN should be changed to an unused VLAN.
c. A default VLAN can be used to carry user-generated traffic, such as email, web browsing, or database updates.
d. A default VLAN supports VoIP traffic, which requires high bandwidths, priority over other traffic, flexible routing, and minimized latency.

A
