Question

A Class B network needs to be subnetted such that it supports 100 subnets and 100 hosts/ subnet. Which of the following answers list a workable combination for the number of network, subnet, and host bits? (Select two answers.)

a. Network = 16, subnet = 7, host = 7
b. Network = 16, subnet = 8, host = 8
c. Network = 16, subnet = 9, host = 7
d. Network = 8, subnet = 7, host = 17
A. A and B
B. B and C
C. C and D
D. A and C

Answer 1

The answer to this question is option "B".

Explanation:

In the given question options B and C are correct because class B uses a network, subnet, and host bits that must be equal to the sum of 32 bits. In both options the total bits are equal to 32 bits, a class needs 7 subnet bits at any rate for supports 100 subnets. and other options are not correct that can be defined as:

• In option, a network, subnet and host bits are not equal to 32 bit because class needs 32 bits. that's why it is wrong.
• In option, d network bits are 8 it is incorrect because query tells a Class B is a network that uses the number of network bits is equal to 16 bits.
