Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The subnet mask 255.255.255.192 indicates 6 bits for subnetting (since 192 is 11000000 in binary). This allows for 2^6 = 64 subnets. Each subnet can have 2^(32-26) - 2 = 62 hosts (subtracting 2 for network and broadcast addresses). Therefore, the correct answer is 102462 (64 subnets * 62 hosts per subnet).
