The correct answer is C. Change the subnet mask to use a 255.255.255.128 range. The current IP address range, 172.16.0.0/28, can only accommodate 14 hosts. To accommodate 16 new servers, the subnet mask needs to be changed to 255.255.255.128, which will allow for 16 hosts per subnet.
Question
A cloud architect is reviewing the design for a new cloud-based ERP solution. The solution consists of eight servers with a single network interface. The allocated IP range is 172.16.0.0/28. One of the requirements of the solution is that it must be able to handle the potential addition of 16 new servers to the environment. Because of the complexity of the firewall and related ACL requirements, these new servers will need to be in the same network range. Which of the following changes would allow for the potential server addition?
Options
- AChange the IP address range to use a 10.0.0.0 address.
- BChange the server template to add network interfaces.
- CChange the subnet mask to use a 255.255.255.128 range.
- DChange the server scaling configuration to increase the maximum limit.
