Well, since I'm not a qualified psychiatrist I don't want to comment on your mental
health, but there is a correct answer here. If we go to binary it all becomes clear.
The /19 means that the first 19 bits are network/subnetwork bits and the remaining 13
bits are host bits. Therefore our mask w
Tom, Thanks for your response but I beg to differ. I agree that answer D
falls inside the range of the 64 subnet as you explain, but this is not the
question. The question asks for a valid host using 172.16.0.0/19, not
172.16.64.0/19
By my reckoning, the valid host range is 172.16.0.1 to 172.16.31

The question is just worded badly. It seems that the writer meant to ask:
1. If you were given the whole 172.16.0.0 network to use and you chose a /19
subnet mask to subnet it with, which of the folowing answers would be a
valid host in ONE of the resulting subnets.
versus
2. Which one of the

Cisco would want to know if you really know subnetting. Hence, the

Bruce,
I disagree that the question is asking for a valid host in the 0 subnet. It is only
stating the network address and mask. Assuming classful addressing (as the CCNA exam
does), from that you have to determine what would be the valid host ranges given that
mask. Anyway, that is my interpr

Thankyou all for your responses. I can see that either answer D is correct,
or there is no correct answer depending on how you interpret the (poorly
worded) question.
