Developing Applications and Automating Workflows Using Cisco Platforms (DEVASC) — Question 180
What are two properties of private IP addresses? (Choose two.)
Answer options
- A. They can be used to access the Internet directly.
- B. They are more secure than public IP addresses.
- C. They are not globally unique.
- D. They can be repeated within the same local network.
- E. They are controlled globally by an IP address registry.
Correct answer: B, C
Explanation
The correct answers are B and C because private IP addresses are not globally unique, meaning they can be reused in different networks without conflict, and they can provide a level of security by not being directly accessible from the Internet. Options A and E are incorrect as private IP addresses cannot access the Internet directly and are not managed by a global registry; option D is misleading as it implies a limitation rather than a property.
