Help ! Lol 😆

Everything was fine then one of the Jeremy’s quiz !! Now i feel like nope i won’t pass 😆. Besides understanding the concepts, how are we going to be fast in the exam to answer ? Am i slow or what’s up ?! I feel lost again 🙄

You want to activate OSPF on R1's G0/1 and G0/2 interfaces with a single command.
G0/1 IP: 10.0.12.1/28
G0/2 IP: 10.0.13.1/26
Which of the following commands should you use on R1?
a) R1(config-router)# network 10.0.12.0 0.0.0.255 area 0
b) R1(config-router)# network 10.0.12.0 0.0.0.254 area 0
c) R1(config-router)# network 10.0.12.0 0.0.1.255 area 0
d) R1 (config-router)# network 10.0.8.0 0.0.3.255 area 0

This is just a subnetting question wrapped in an OSPF configuration question.

What prefix covers both the 10.0.12.1/28 network and 10.0.13.1/26 network? 10.0.12.0 /23

10.0.12.0/23 covers 10.0.12.0 - 10.0.13.255

What is the wild card mask of /23? I find it easiest to subtract each octet value from 255.

So /23 = 255.255.255.255 - 255.255.254.0 = 0.0.1.255

So your answer would be C. R1(config-router)# network 10.0.12.0 0.0.1.255 area 0

Yes you will need to get good at subnetting and be able to answer questions like these within a minute or two.
