Question 19

Why is the address 172.31.255.255 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 invalid as a host ID?

A)Because the subnet is incorrect for the IP address class
B)Because the 172.x.x.x range is reserved for loopback purposes
C)The host ID bits are all binary 1's,making the address a broadcast address and therefore invalid as a host ID.
D)Because the network ID has a 255 in it,making this an invalid network ID

Question 20

A router is...

A)A network device that forwards communication packets from one network to another
B)The device that connects a computer to the rest of the network
C)The hardware that connects a computer to the network media
