Lesson 5: Identifying the Default Gateway

What is IPv4?

• A communication protocol used across the internet

• A type of computer hardware

• A programming language

• A software application

What are the components of an IPv4 Address?

• Network and Host

• Subnet and Host

• Network, Subnet, and Host

• Only Network

How is an IPv4 Address represented in Binary?

• A sequence of 32 bits

• A sequence of 16 bits

• A sequence of 64 bits

• A sequence of 128 bits

Subnetting in the context of IPv4 Addresses is:

• A method to divide a network into smaller, more manageable pieces.

• A way to increase the number of available IP addresses.

• A technique to enhance network security.

• A process to convert IPv4 to IPv6.

What are the differences between manual and automatic assignment of IPv4 Addresses?

• Manual assignment requires user intervention, while automatic assignment does not.

• Automatic assignment is more secure than manual assignment.

• Manual assignment is faster than automatic assignment.

• There are no differences between manual and automatic assignment.

What are the most common types of addresses used on the Internet and in internal networks today?

• IPv6

• MAC addresses
• Subnet masks
• IPv4

Large organizations often divide the network into subnets because:

• it improves network performance and security.

• it increases the number of IP addresses available.

• it reduces the need for network hardware.

• it simplifies the network design.

What protocol do most organizations use to automatically assign IP addresses and other TCP/IP configuration information?

• DNS
• FTP
• DHCP
• ARP

What is the Network ID and Host ID of an IP Address?

• Network ID is the first part of the IP address, and Host ID is the second part.

• Network ID is the second part of the IP address, and Host ID is the first part.

• Network ID and Host ID are both the same part of the IP address.

• Network ID and Host ID do not exist in an IP address.

Identify the Default Gateway.

• By checking the IP address of the router

• By looking at the subnet mask

• By finding the DNS server address

• By identifying the MAC address
