    1. A crossover cable should be used in place of the straight-through cable.
    2. A rollover cable should be used in place of the straight-through cable.
    3. The subnet masks should be set to 255.255.255.192.
    4. A default gateway needs to be set on each host.
    5. The subnet masks should be set to 255.255.255.0.


  • Options
  • A. 1 only
  • B. 2 only
  • C. 3 and 4 only
  • D. 1 and 5 only
  • E. 2 and 5 only

  • Correct Answer
  • 1 and 5 only 

    Explanation
    First, if you have two hosts directly connected, as shown in the graphic, then you need a crossover cable. A straight-through cable won't work. Second, the hosts have different masks, which puts them in different subnets. The easy solution is just to set both masks to 255.255.255.0 (/24).
