(Solved) : Consider Datagram Network Using 32 Bit Host Addresses Suppose Router Four Links Numbered 0 Q32968205 . . . .

Consider a datagram network using 32-bit host addresses. Supposea router has four links, numbered 0 through 3, and packets are tobe forwarded to the link interfaces as follows:

Destination Address Range

Link Interface

11100001 00000000 00000000 00000000

through

11100001 00111111 11111111 11111111

0

11100001 01000000 00000000 00000000

11100001 01000000 11111111 11111111

Assume that the router uses “longest prefix matching” to dodatagram forwarding.

a. If a datagram has 225.73.5.6 as the destination address,which interface should the router send the datagram to? (Hint:write the destination address as a sequence of 32 bits; do prefixmatching for all the prefixes; and find the entry that it matcheswith the
