An organization has a class C network 192.168.1.0/24 and wants to form subnets for 4 departments, with hosts as follows:
A: 78 hosts
B: 36 hosts
C: 20 hosts
D: 18 hosts
1. There are 152 hosts in all. Give a possible arrangement of network and subnet masks (a.b.c.d/x format) to make this possible.
2. Suggest what the organization might do if the department D grows to 34 hosts.
Consider a datagram network using 8-bit host addresses. Suppose a router uses longest prefix matching and has the following forwarding table:
Prefix Match Interface
1 0
10 1
111 2
otherwise 3
For each of the four interfaces, give the associated range of destination host addresses and the number of addresses in the range.
