Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) 200-301 Practice Test 8

Question 70

An IPv4 ACL should match only `192.0.2.64/27`. It instead uses `192.0.2.64 0.0.0.63`, allowing packets from .96 onward. Which change corrects the match?

  1. Keep wildcard 0.0.0.63 because /27 has exactly 64 addresses.
  2. Use wildcard `0.0.0.31` with network `192.0.2.64` for the intended /27.
  3. Set wildcard 0.0.0.255, which restricts the ACL to 32 consecutive addresses.
  4. Use subnet mask 255.255.255.224 as the wildcard on the ACL line.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

An ACL wildcard is the bitwise complement of the subnet mask. /27 is 255.255.255.224, so its final wildcard octet is 31. The current wildcard 63 matches a /26-sized range (.64–.127).

Incorrect Answers

A:

A /27 has 32 addresses, while a 63 wildcard permits 64 values in the low-order six bits.

C:

A 255 wildcard would ignore the full final octet, allowing 256 address values.

D:

ACL network matching uses an inverse/wildcard mask in this context; 255.255.255.224 is the regular subnet mask, not its wildcard complement.

Question 71

An engineer needs to advertise only the four /24 LANs `10.20.4.0/24` through `10.20.7.0/24`, but advertises `10.20.0.0/21`. Why is the summary too broad?

  1. The /21 matches only the four LANs ending at .7.255.
  2. The correct summary is 10.20.5.0/22 because .5 is the first active host range.
  3. A /21 includes `10.20.0.0–10.20.7.255`; the aligned summary of just 10.20.4.0–7.255 is `10.20.4.0/22`.
  4. A router must advertise a default route /0 instead of any 10.20.x.x summary.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The eight-/24 /21 summary inadvertently covers 10.20.0.0–3.255, possibly drawing traffic for unrelated networks. The four adjacent /24 prefixes beginning at a multiple-of-four third octet aggregate to /22.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A /21 contains eight /24 networks, not four; the 10.20.0.0/21 prefix begins at third-octet 0.

B:

A /22 must align to a multiple of four in the third octet; the proper base here is 10.20.4.0.

D:

A default route would be substantially broader than the desired four networks and does not solve unintended traffic attraction.

Question 72

A technician verifies a host at 192.0.2.77/27. Which broadcast IP should appear for the LAN segment containing that host?

  1. 192.0.2.79.
  2. 192.0.2.63.
  3. 192.0.2.95.
  4. 192.0.2.127.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The /27 containing .77 begins at .64 and ends at .95. The last address is the directed broadcast for that subnet.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This would be the end of a /28 range beginning at .64, not a /27 broadcast.

B:

This is the broadcast of the immediately preceding /27, which covers .32–.63.

D:

That broadcast belongs to the following /27 block .96–.127 and does not contain host .77.

Question 73

A LAN uses mask 255.255.255.240. The network needs 14 simultaneous hosts TOTAL including its default gateway. Is that mask sufficient under ordinary IPv4 subnet conventions?

  1. No. /28 provides exactly 13 usable hosts even before reserving a gateway.
  2. Yes. /28 provides 16 usable hosts because both the network and broadcast count as ordinary hosts.
  3. Yes. /28 provides 16 addresses, of which 14 are conventionally usable; the gateway is one of those 14.
  4. No. /28 is a two-host point-to-point-only block.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

A /28 has 4 host bits, yielding 16 addresses and 14 conventional usable values. Since the gateway is counted in the 14 required hosts, the prefix exactly fits.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This subtracts an additional host that is already included in the 14 usable addresses; a gateway is just one of those addresses.

B:

Conventional IPv4 LANs reserve the all-zero host address for network ID and all-ones for directed broadcast, so 16 total does not mean 16 usable.

D:

A two-host conventional subnet is /30, not /28.

Question 74

After correcting two adjacent /29 transit subnets, what acceptance check best establishes that each peer interface has a valid unique address in its designated block?

  1. Confirm that both interfaces show the same `/28` connected route after the repair.
  2. Verify only that both ports have MAC addresses.
  3. Calculate each /29 network and broadcast boundary, verify each interface uses one of the six usable hosts in its own block, and check connected prefixes for overlap.
  4. Inspect the default route and ignore the two locally connected prefixes.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

A /29 contains eight addresses with six conventional usable hosts. Validating the exact network/broadcast of both allocations and their connected routes detects /28-style accidental overreach as well as invalid interface values.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The design requires distinct /29 blocks; collapsing to a /28 may recreate the unwanted overlap.

B:

Ethernet MAC presence does not establish the validity or separation of configured IPv4 subnet ranges.

D:

Default-route state cannot prove that each local routed handoff uses a valid and disjoint /29 assignment.

Question 75

Two routers share Ethernet handoff 198.51.100.20/30. R1 uses 198.51.100.21/30 and R2 uses 198.51.100.22/30. Which statement accurately identifies the usable endpoints and reserved addresses?

  1. 198.51.100.20 and 198.51.100.21 are the two usable host addresses; .23 is an extra host.
  2. 198.51.100.20 and 198.51.100.23 are usable host addresses because this is point-to-point.
  3. Only 198.51.100.22 is usable; the /30 prefix reserves three other addresses.
  4. 198.51.100.21 and 198.51.100.22 are the usable addresses; .20 is network and .23 is broadcast.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The /30 mask is 255.255.255.252, so subnet boundaries advance by four in the last octet. The block beginning at .20 spans .20 through .23. Its network address is .20, its broadcast is .23, and .21 and .22 are the two conventional host addresses. That matches the stated router interfaces, so both peers can be configured on the same point-to-point IPv4 subnet. Validate with each router's interface prefix and a peer ping rather than altering routing protocols to compensate for address arithmetic. This is a conventional /30, not the special /31 model where both addresses are usable.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The first address in a conventional /30 subnet identifies the network, rather than an endpoint. The address 198.51.100.20 is therefore not assignable as an interface host on the specified /30. The proposed .23 additional host would also be the directed broadcast address. The configured /30 peers are .21 and .22, which fit the conventional subnet addressing rule.

B:

A point-to-point link may use /31 addressing under RFC 3021 if both peers support it, but this scenario explicitly uses /30 masks. A /30 has two host bits, and normal network and broadcast reservations apply. The endpoints cannot both be taken from .20 and .23 merely because the physical connection has exactly two devices. The given .21 and .22 interface values are correct.

C:

A four-address /30 network has two usable host addresses, not one. The binary host fields 01 and 10 identify .21 and .22 in this block, respectively. The host values 00 and 11 are the network and broadcast addresses. There is no evidence that .21 is invalid or that a different subnet is configured. Claiming only .22 remains usable confuses prefix reservations with interface allocation.

Question 76

Routers R1 and R2 have a /31 point-to-point link 192.0.2.10/31 using RFC 3021. Which pair of addresses can the two endpoints use?

  1. 192.0.2.10 and 192.0.2.11.
  2. 192.0.2.9 and 192.0.2.10.
  3. 192.0.2.10 and 192.0.2.12.
  4. Only 192.0.2.11, because .10 must remain a subnet broadcast address.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

For a compliant /31 point-to-point link, both values in the aligned two-address block are usable endpoints; no ordinary network/broadcast addresses are reserved for the link.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Address .9 belongs to the preceding /31 block 192.0.2.8/31, so it is not a peer in .10/31.

C:

Address .12 begins the next /31 block, not the same two-address prefix.

D:

RFC 3021 permits the formerly network/broadcast bit patterns as the two endpoint addresses of a /31 point-to-point link.

Question 77

A repaired VLSM plan must fit a 100-host department and an already provisioned 30-host department inside one `/24`. Which evidence most directly demonstrates that their assigned IPv4 blocks no longer overlap?

  1. Count the number of devices in each department without checking subnet network addresses.
  2. Confirm that the default gateway replies from at least one host on one subnet only.
  3. Calculate the complete address interval for each allocated prefix and confirm the /25 and /27 use disjoint aligned ranges.
  4. Assign the /27 the same prefix base as the /25 so routers can summarize automatically.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The /25 supports 126 hosts and the /27 supports 30; both can fit disjointly inside a /24 if the small network is outside the /25. Checking the actual network-to-broadcast intervals detects silent overlap.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Host counts alone cannot reveal two prefixes being assigned overlapping IPv4 ranges.

B:

A local ping can succeed despite an address plan that overlaps between independent LANs.

D:

A /27 nested inside the department /25 creates exactly the overlap the repair is supposed to remove.

Question 78

An extended IPv4 ACL should match source hosts in 192.0.2.64/27 and no addresses outside that subnet. What wildcard mask belongs with `192.0.2.64`?

  1. 0.0.0.63.
  2. 0.0.0.31.
  3. 0.0.0.15.
  4. 0.0.0.255.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

A /27 subnet mask is 255.255.255.224, whose bitwise inverse (wildcard) is 0.0.0.31. This covers exactly .64–.95.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A wildcard of 0.0.0.63 matches a 64-address range and includes addresses that are outside the intended /27.

C:

A 0.0.0.15 wildcard covers only 16 addresses and excludes part of the requested /27 block.

D:

A 0.0.0.255 wildcard covers the entire /24 and is far broader than requested.

Question 79

The intended advertisement is exactly `10.20.4.0/24` through `10.20.7.0/24`; an earlier `/21` incorrectly covered extra LANs. What routing-table evidence proves the new summary is constrained to those four /24s?

  1. Accept `10.20.0.0/21` again because it is a shorter routing-table entry.
  2. Verify the exported prefix is `10.20.4.0/22`, whose covered interval is .4.0–.7.255, and that no replacement /21 unintentionally attracts .0–.3.
  3. Check only that a next-hop IP appears somewhere in the route table.
  4. Validate a subnet mask for an unrelated point-to-point /31 link.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Four aligned contiguous /24 prefixes share a 22-bit network prefix. Checking the exact advertised CIDR and covered addresses demonstrates both inclusion of all required networks and exclusion of the extra lower networks.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A shorter table entry is not always correct; the /21 covers four additional /24s beyond the approved range.

C:

A route can have a next hop and still be advertised with the wrong overly broad destination mask.

D:

That check cannot establish the binary shared prefix of the four /24 LANs being summarized.

Question 80

A branch administrator proposes these source networks for hosts that must remain within RFC 1918 private IPv4 space. Which list contains only RFC 1918 private address blocks?

  1. 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/16
  2. 10.0.0.0/8, 172.32.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/16
  3. 10.0.0.0/8, 169.254.0.0/16, and 192.168.0.0/16
  4. 100.64.0.0/10, 172.16.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/16

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

RFC 1918 reserves exactly three IPv4 private ranges: 10/8, 172.16/12, and 192.168/16. The /12 range covers 172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255, not every 172.x address. These prefixes can be routed internally but are not intended to be advertised as ordinary publicly reachable Internet routes. When a private host reaches an external public IPv4 service, an appropriate translation or another legitimate upstream addressing design is generally required. The proposed three-prefix list correctly describes the private blocks. Operators can verify addresses by applying the mask to the binary prefix, not by memorizing that all addresses beginning with 172 are private.

Incorrect Answers

B:

172.32.0.0 falls outside the RFC 1918 172.16.0.0/12 interval, which ends at 172.31.255.255. The presence of the correct 10/8 and 192.168/16 blocks does not make 172.32/12 private. Using this as an internal private-only addressing plan can collide with legitimately allocated public space or create routing surprises. Always test the second octet boundary for 172 addresses.

C:

169.254.0.0/16 is IPv4 link-local addressing, often seen when a client cannot obtain a DHCP lease. It is not one of the three RFC 1918 private blocks and is not a substitute for a routed enterprise subnet. A host using 169.254/16 generally has only local-link communication and may lack a default gateway. Treating it as an RFC 1918 pool conceals the actual addressing failure.

D:

100.64.0.0/10 is shared address space specified for carrier-grade NAT and similar service-provider uses, not RFC 1918 private address space. The 172.16/12 and 192.168/16 members of this choice are valid private ranges, but all members must satisfy the condition. Deploying shared address space in an enterprise is a separate design decision with different interoperability concerns. It cannot replace 10/8 in an enumeration of the exact RFC 1918 blocks.
