An office has 8 floors with approximately 30-40 users per floor. What command must be configured on the router Switched Virtual Interface to use address space efficiently?
A. ip address 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.224 correct
B. ip address 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0
C. ip address 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.128 wrong
D. ip address 192.168.0.0 255.255.254.0
How could the answer possibly be A when it clearly states in question 30-40 users? Obviously you would not have enough adresses for 40 users when you use a /27 mask, I thought that was the whole point of the question.

Following question is a bit misleading:
Refer to the exhibit. An engineer must add a subnet for a new office that will add 20 users to the network. Which IPv4 network and subnet mask combination does the engineer assign to minimize wasting addresses?
Of course 10.10.225.48/27 is also correct, because it covers the same IP address space; 10.10.225.48 is just not the first subnet within that range. I guess you should make it more clear.

For knightnight’s question: we are in a class C network so we only have 256 available addresses in total. Divided by 8 floors with equal requirements that leaves us with 8 subnets of the /27 class or .224 mask.
For Sebastian’s question: 10.10.225.48/27 would go from 10.10.225.48 to 10.10.225.79 as a /27 has 32 IP addresses but the 10.10.225.64/28 subnet already uses the range 10.10.225.64-10.10.225.79

Please follow up @9tut, /27 wouldn’t be enough for 40 users.

@Kevin: This question has 2 parts:
+ 8 floors
+ approximately 30-40 users per floor
We cannot fulfill both with the answers provided. So we can only choose the best answer.
If you choose .128 then it is not enough for 8 floors.
If you choose .224 then it is enough for 30 users.
But we believe “8 floors” is more important than 30 users.

i believe that 8 floors question is incomplete
