CCNA Routing and Switching (legacy) — Question 47

What is the correct routing match to reach 172.16.1.5/32?

Answer options

• A. 172.16.1.0/26
• B. 172.16.1.0/25
• C. 172.16.1.0/24
• D. the default route

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, 172.16.1.0/26, because it includes the specific address 172.16.1.5 within its range. The other options do not match this specific address as closely; while they include larger ranges, they do not specifically restrict or match the /32 requirement as accurately as /26 does.
