16
Q

what is a ipv6

A

it is a 128bits alphanumeric address

17
Q

what is the range number and subnet mask number for class A

A

first octet 1-126
subnet mask- 255.0.0.0
function-computer

18
Q
what is the range number and subnet mask number for class 
b
A

octet- 128-191
subnet mask- 255.255.0.0
function- computer

19
Q

what is the range number and subnet mask number for class c

A

octet-192-223
subnet mask- 255.255.255.255.0
function- computer

20
Q

what is the range number and subnet mask number for class d

A

octet-224-239
subnet mask N/A
function-broadcasting and multicasting

21
Q

what is the range number and subnet mask number for class e

A

octet-240-255
subnet mask- N/A
function-research

22
Q

what is a subnet mask

A

it is used to separate the network address portion of an ip address from the host address portion

the network address(defines the LAN) portion is always static while the host address portion is dynamic
example class c ip 192.168.2.10 the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 3 octet number is a network address and the last number is the host portion.
23
Q

what is the subnet mask for ip adress 172.168.2.4 ? what is the network portion and the host portion? what class does it fall under ?

A

class b
subnet mask- 255.255.0.0
172.168. is the network portion and 2.4 is the host number.

24
Q

understanding troubleshooting with network addresses.

A

only system with the same network address (sub mask) can talk to each other for ex: pc1 192.168.2.10 255.255.255.0 and pc2 192.168.2.11 255.255.255.0 these two system are able to communicate with each other.
example2 pc1 192.168.2.10 255.255.0.0 pc2 192.168.2.11 255.255.255.0 these two system can NOT talk to each other because they do not have the same network address (sub mask)

25
Q

what is CIDR

A

is used to converse ip addresses, it occurs when standrd ip address class format is not respected.

26
Q

how many ip network can systems receive for class c in the LAN. how many computers can you have in a class c network.

A

maximum 254

27
Q

what is the loopback address

A

127.0.0.1

it is used to troubleshoot the ip stack of a system

28
Q

what is a ip stack

A

it is the program that runs the ip system of an os
