On an class C IPv4 network, which of these IPs is used for broadcast traffic
- 192.168.0.254
- 192.168.0.0
- 192.168.0.1
- 192.168.0.255
EXPLANATION
It is very similar to the
network broadcast we just talked about but varies slightly in the sense
that its IP broadcast is not set to 255.255.255.255 , but is set to the
subnet broadcast address. For example, my home network is a Class C
network : 192.168.0.0 with a subnetmask of 255.255.255.0 or, if you like
to keep it simple, : 192.168.0.0/24.
This means that the
available valid hosts for this network are from 192.168.0.1 to
192.168.0.254. In this Class C network, as in every other network, there
are 2 addresses which I can't use. The first one is preserved to
identify the network (192.168.0.0) and the second one for the subnet
broadcast (192.168.0.255).
