Question: Consider the following forwarding table. Destination Address Range Link Interface 10000011 00000001 00110000 00000000 through 10000011 00000001 00110111 11111111 0 10000011 00000001 00111000 00000000 through
Consider the following forwarding table.
| Destination Address Range | Link Interface |
| 10000011 00000001 00110000 00000000 through 10000011 00000001 00110111 11111111 | 0 |
| 10000011 00000001 00111000 00000000 through 10000011 00000001 00111111 11111111 | 1 |
| 10000011 00000001 00110000 00000000 through 10000011 00000001 00110001 11111111 | 2 |
| 10000011 00000001 00110010 00000000 through 10000011 00000001 00110011 11111111 | 3 |
| Otherwise | 4 |
a) For each of the following IP address, what does the router do if packets with the following addresses arrive? Explain why briefly.
- 131.1.64.1
- 131.1.51.20
- 131.1.49.7
- 131.1.60.120
- 131.1.52.59
- b) Rewrite this forwarding table using the a.b.c.d/x notation instead of the binary string notation. Also determine the number of IP addresses for each network.
| Destination Network Address (a.b.c.d/x) | Number of IP addresses | Link Interface |
|
|
| 0 |
|
|
| 1 |
|
|
| 2 |
|
|
| 3 |
| Otherwise | N/A | 4 |
