For wired network cards that get their IP addresses through DHCP, what can be set manually?

Assume that a large number of consecutive IP addresses are available starting at 198.16.0.0 and suppose that two organizations,

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer & Explanation:

An IP version 4 address is of the form w.x.y.z/s

where s = subnet mask

w = first 8 bit field, x = 2nd 8 bit field, y = 3rd 8 bit field, and z = 4th 8 bit field

each field has 256 decimal equivalent. that is

binary denary or decimal

11111111 = 2⁸ = 256

w.x.y.z represents

in binary

11111111.11111111.11111111.11111111

in denary

255.255.255.255

note that 255 = 2⁸ - 1 = no of valid hosts/addresses

there are classes of addresses, that is

class A = w.0.0.0 example 10.0.0.0

class B = w.x.0.0 example 172.16.0.0

class C = w.x.y.0 example 198.16.8.1

where w, x, y, z could take numbers from 1 to 255

Now in the question

we were given the ip address : 198.16.0.0 (class B)

address of quantity 4000, 2000, 8000 is possible with a subnet mask of type

255.255.0.0 (denary) or

11111111.11111111.00000000.00000000(binary) where /s = /16 That is no of 1s

In a VLSM (Variable Length Subnet Mask)

Step 1

we convert the number of host/addresses for company A to binary

4000 = 111110100000 = 12 bit

step 2 (subnet mask)

vary the fixed subnet mask to reserve zeros (0s) for the 12 bit above

fixed subnet mask: 11111111.11111111.00000000.00000000 /16

variable subnet mask: 11111111.11111111.11110000.000000 /20

now we have added 4 1s in the 3rd field to reserve 12 0s

subnet mask: 255.255.16.0 (where the 1s in each field represent a denary number as follows)

1st 1 = 128, 2nd 1 = 64 as follows

1 1 1  1  1 1 1 1

128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

step 3

in the ip network address: 198.16.0.0/19 (subnet representation) we increment this using 16

that is 16 is added to the 3rd field as follows

That means the ist Valid Ip address starts from

Ist valid Ip add: 198.16.0.1 - 198.16.15.255(last valid IP address)

Company B starts+16: 198.16.16.0 - 198.16.31.255

+16: 198.16.32.0- 198.16.47.255 etc

we repeat the steps for other companies as follows

Company B

Step 1

we convert the number of host/addresses for company B to binary

2000 = 11111010000 = 11 bit

Step 2

vary the fixed subnet mask to reserve zeros (0s) for the 11 bit above

fixed subnet mask: 11111111.11111111.00000000.00000000 /16

variable subnet mask: 11111111.11111111.11111000.000000 /21

now we have added 5 1s in the third field to reserve 11 0s

subnet mask: 255.255.8.0 (where the 1s in each field represent a denary number as follows)

1st 1 = 128, 2nd 1 = 64 as follows

1 1 1 1 1  1 1 1

128 64 32 16 8  4 2 1

Step 3

Starting from after the last valid Ip address for company A

in the ip network address: 198.16.16.0/21 (subnet representation) we increment this using 8

That means the ist Valid Ip address starts from

Ist valid Ip add: 198.16.16.1 - 198.16.23.255(last valid IP address)

Company C starts +16: 198.16.24.0- 198.16.31.255

+16: 198.16.32.0- 198.16.112.255 etc

Company C

Step 1

we convert the number of host/addresses for company C to binary

4000 = 111110100000 = 12 bit

Step 2

vary the fixed subnet mask to reserve zeros (0s) for the 12 bit above

fixed subnet mask: 11111111.11111111.00000000.00000000 /16

variable subnet mask: 11111111.11111111.11110000.000000 /20

now we have added 4 1s in the 3rd field to reserve 12 0s

subnet mask: 255.255.16.0 (where the 1s in each field represent a denary number as follows)

1st 1 = 128, 2nd 1 = 64 as follows

1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

Step 3

Starting from after the last valid ip address for company B

in the ip network address: 198.16.24.0/20 (subnet representation) we increment this using 16

That means the ist Valid Ip address starts from

Ist valid Ip add: 198.16.24.1 - 198.16.39.255(last valid IP address)

Company C starts +16: 198.16.40.0- 198.16.55.255

+16: 198.16.56.0- 198.16.71.255 etc

Company D

Step 1

we convert the number of host/addresses for company D to binary

8000 = 1111101000000 = 13 bit

Step 2

vary the fixed subnet mask to reserve zeros (0s) for the 13 bit above

fixed subnet mask: 11111111.11111111.00000000.00000000 /16

variable subnet mask: 11111111.11111111.11100000.000000 /19

now we have added 3 1s in the 3rd field to reserve 13 0s

subnet mask: 255.255.32.0 (where the 1s in each field represent a denary number as follows)

1st 1 = 128, 2nd 1 = 64 as follows

1 1  1  1 1 1 1 1

128 64 32  16 8 4 2 1

Step 3

Starting from after the last valid ip address for company C

in the ip network address: 198.16.40.0/20 (subnet representation) we increment this using 32

That means the ist Valid Ip address starts from

Ist valid Ip add: 198.16.40.1 - 198.16.71.255(last valid IP address)

Company C starts +16: 198.16.72.0- 198.16.103.255

+16: 198.16.104.0- 198.16.136.255 etc

Answer:

Landscape or vertical page orientation

Explanation:

In landscape he can mange the number of cell that are required to print on A4 page size.

On landscape orientation of the page we can add more columns of the sheet. That is the reason, we should choose landscape or horizontal page orientation to adjust all columns on the single page.

Changing a worksheet name in Microsoft Excel can be done in multiple ways, but only one of them is correctly explained in the provided option, which is (A) double-click both the worksheet tabs one at a time and then enter the new names.

The other options are incorrect. Even though you can change a worksheet’s name by right-clicking the sheet name, you also need to choose the appropriate option from the window bar that would appear – which is, of course, the rename option.
