List of Questions18 questions
- Question 1
- To distinguish the network and host portions of the IP address
- To increase the number of available IP addresses
- To improve the efficiency of routing protocols
- To provide a more organized structure for IP addresses
- Question 2
- Classful addressing is more efficient for large networks, while Classless addressing is more efficient for small networks
- Classful addressing depends on the network and host portions, while Classless addressing does not
- Classful addressing uses fixed subnet masks, while Classless addressing uses variable subnet masks
- Classful addressing is used for IPv6, while Classless addressing is used for IPv4
