The DNS protocol is

• 
  used to resolve an IP address when the host name is known

• used for mapping IP addresses to MAC addresses

• 
  used for translating between IPv4 and IPv6

• used to resolve the network default gateway when the IP address is known

• 
  ISP A pays ISP B for the transport of data, but ISP B does not pay ISP A for the transport of data.

• 
  ISP A and ISP B run a peer-to-peer file exchange protocol between them.

•

You have been provided with the 132.145.0.0/24 address space. You have a very simple network. You have one point-to-point link (2 hosts) and one internal subnet with 37 hosts. Subnet accordingly. (YOU HAVE 3 MINS)

What is the network address of the internal subnet (do not include subnet mask) ​ (a)   ​ ​

What is the subnet mask of the internal subnet in dotted decimal format​ (b)  

What is the subnet mask of the internal subnet in slash format​ (c)  

What is the network address of the point-to-point link (do not include subnet mask)​ (d)
