Introducing Cisco Data Center Networking (DCICN) — Question 52

Which two statements describe the purpose of RFC 1918? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Establish a range of IP addresses that are dedicated to the growing use of multicast video.
• B. Establish a range of IP addresses that are dedicated to the growing use of peer-to-peer file- sharing applications.
• C. Establish a range of IP addresses that are dedicated to use on internal networks.
• D. Establish a range of IP addresses to address the shrinking pool of globally routable addresses.
• E. Delay the transition to IPv6.

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

The correct answers, C and D, highlight that RFC 1918 designates IP address ranges specifically for internal network use and addresses the issue of limited globally routable addresses. Options A, B, and E are incorrect as they do not reflect the intent of RFC 1918, which is focused on private addressing and routing limitations rather than multicast, peer-to-peer applications, or delaying IPv6 adoption.
