Your company has a policy to use the first IP address in a network as the default gateway address. You have been instructed to configure a new server with an IP address of 192.168.184.277 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.248 A) what is the network address for this network ? B) what is the default gateway for this server ? Your company has a policy to use the first IP address in a network as the default gateway address.

B) what is the default gateway for this server ? A) what is the network address for this network ? B) what is the default gateway for this server ?

Explanation / Answer

IP address given for server: - 192.168.184.277 - this address is wrong .. as last number 277 is greater than 255(max range).

Lets take an example of valid IP address as 192.168.184.227

subnet mask is 255.255.255.248

a) to calculate the network address for this network will be AND of ip address and subnet mask.

IP address in binary 11000000.10101000.10111000.11100011

subnet mask in binary 11111111.11111111.11111111.11111000

Doing AND operation on both we get 11000000.10101000.10111000.11100000

Converting this to decimal we get 192.168.184.224

b) default gateway address as defined in question is the first address of network which is 192.168.184.225
