Question

"You have an interface on a router with the IP address of 192.168.192.10/29. Including the router interface, how many hosts can have IP addresses on the LAN attached to the router interface?"

Answer 1

Answer:

6 hosts can have IP addresses on the LAN attached to the router interface

Explanation:

Given IP address

=> 192.168.192.10/29

It has a subnet mask of /29 which means it has 3 host bits. This is calculated by subtracting 29 from 32(number of bits in an IPV4)

Since there are 3 host bits,  the total number of possible addresses is given by

=> $2^{3}$ = 8 possible addresses.

Out of these 8 possible addresses, the first address will be the subnet id and the last address will be the broadcast address.

Therefore, there are only 6 addresses available for the hosts.

Hope this helps!
