Q

address is used by applications and hosts to send information to all hosts on a network. Examples include 255.255.255.255, which designates all networks and all hosts; 172.16.255.255, which specifies all subnets and hosts on network 172.16.0.0; and 10.255.255.255, which broadcasts to all subnets and hosts on network 10.0.0.0.
ch 7 pg 206

A

broadcast address

Q

In a ________ address, the first byte is assigned to the network address, and the three remaining bytes are used for the host addresses. The_________network format is as follows: network.host.host.host

ch 7 pg 208

A

Class A network

18
Q

In a ______network address, the first 2 bytes are assigned to the network address and the remaining 2 bytes are used for host addresses. The format is as follows: network.network.host.host

Q

What is the format of a Class C Network?

A

20
Q

is assigned to, and uniquely identifies, each machine on a network. ch 7 pg 207

A

Q

also called the network number— uniquely identifies each network. ch 7 pg 207

A

network address

22
Q

The crux of ________ is that it enables multiple recipients to receive messages without flooding the messages to all hosts on a broadcast domain. However, this is not the default behavior— it’s what we can do with multicasting if it’s configured correctly!

ch 7 pg 214

A

Multicast

23
Q

___________broadcasts are also known as hardware broadcasts.they only go out on a LAN, and they don’t go past the LAN boundary (router).
