A network administrator is connecting PC hosts A and B directly through their Ethernet
interfaces as shown in the graphic. Ping attempts between the hosts are unsuccessful. What
can be done to provide connectivity between the hosts? (Choose two.)
A.
A crossover cable should be used in place of the straight-through cable.
B.
A rollover cable should be used in place of the straight-through cable.
C.
The subnet masks should be set to 255.255.255.192
D.
A default gateway needs to be set on each host.
E.
The hosts must be reconfigured to use private IP addresses for direct connections of this
type.
F.
The subnet masks should be set to 255.255.255.0
A and F
A because both PCs transmit on the same copper pair, and as a consequence they should use a crossover cable (they switch the transmit and receive copper pairs)
F because only that subnet will put both IP addresses on the same network (no router is used to they should be on the same network).
all other answers are incorrect
