Allows for the use of a classless subnet mask to create smaller networks with fewer hosts in each network
Process is called CIDR (Classless Inter-Domain Routing) Notation

25
Q

RIPE

A

Europe IP addresses

26
Q

NAT

A

Network Address Translation
Allows for routing of private IPs through a public IP

27
Q

RFC 1918

A

Used to document how organizations could conduct address allocation for private internets (intranet)

28
Q

What is the IP range for a Private Class A network?

A

10.x.x.x

29
Q

How many possible hosts can a Private Class A Network have?

A

16.7 million

30
Q

What is the IP range for a Private Class B Network?

A

172.16.x.x - 172.31.x.x

31
Q

How many possible hosts can a Private Class B Network have?

A

1.05 million

32
Q

What is the IP range for a Private Class C Network?

A

192.168.x.x

33
Q

How many possible hosts can a Private Class C Network have?

A

65,536

34
Q

Loopback Address

A

127.0.0.1
Creates a loopback to the host and is often used in troubleshooting and testing network protocols on a system. Also called localhost
“There’s no place like 127.0.0.1”

35
Q

APIPA

A

Automatic Private IP Addresses
Used when a device does not have a static IP address or cannot reach a DHCP server
169.254.x.x

36
Q

Virtual IP Address

A

IP address that does not correlated to an actual physical network interface
Usually used for NAT, fault tolerance, virtualization
Routers often use VIP to provide redundancy in their connectivity options

37
Q

Subinterfaces

A

Virtual interface that is created by dividing up one physical interface into multiple logical interfaces

38
Q

Unicast

A

Data travels from a single source to a single destination

39
Q

Broadcast

A

Data travels from a single source device to ALL devices on a destination network

40
Q

Multicast

A

Data travels from a single source to multiple (but specific) destination devices

41
Q

Static IP Assignment

A

Manually typing in IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS server
Time consuming, prone to error, impractical on large enterprise networks

42
Q

Dynamic IP Assignment

A

Dynamic allocation of IP addresses

43
Q

DNS

A

Domain Name System
Converts domain names used by a website to the IP address of its server

44
Q

Windows Internet Name Service (WINS)

A

Identifies NetBIOS systems on a TCP/IP network and converts those NetBIOS names to IP addresses

45
Q

Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP)

A

Dynamically assigns IP addresses and allows a workstation to load a copy of their boot image over the network
Oldest method of dynamic assignment, least used

46
Q

DHCP

A

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
Assigns an IP based on an assignable scope or pool of addresses and provides the ability to configure numerous other options within it
IPs leased for a period of time and returns to the pool when lease expires
