Their computers are connected together using a crossover Ethernet cable. Why

can’t they ping each other?

(a) The subnet masks are different

(b) They can. This is another trick question.

(c) Because they are in different subnets.

(d) Because the router does not support subnetting.

(e) Because it should be a straight-through cable.

18. Why is VLSM important to modern IP networks?

(a) Because networks that use the same mask cannot route.

(b) Because every subnet must use a different mask to avoid conflicts.

(c) Because it allows us to uniquely identify each subnet by its mask number.

(d) Because it allows each subnet in a routed system to be correctly sized for the requirement.

19. What must a routing protocol be able to do to support VLSM?

(a) Multicast

(b) Automatically summarize networks to a common mask

(c) Advertise the mask for each subnet in the routing update
