CLASSFUL ROUTING PROTOCOL.

It means it will not carry the routing mask information while routing updates or routing advertisements. it will carry just only the ip-address information's. It will assume just default mask information's.

Example : class-A 255.0.0.0

Class-B 255.255.0.0

Class-C 255.255.255.0

So classful routing protocols will not support the VLSM and Supernetting

Example of classful routing protocols is

1. RIP V1

2. IGRP

CLASSLESS ROUTING PROTOCOL

These kind of routing protocols will carry the subnet mask information's while doing the routing updates or routing advertisements.

So it will support the VLSM and Supernetting, also support noncontiguous networks

Example

RIP V2

EIGRP

OSPF CLASSFUL ROUTING PROTOCOL.

Which network and mask combination requires the use of a classless addressing solution?

The network and mask combination that requires the use of a classless addressing solution is 172.16.0.0/12. Classless routing is supernetting and is known as CIDR, Classless Inter-Domain Routing.


Is OSPF a classful or classless link-state routing protocol?

OSPF is a classless link-state routing protocol. RIP version 1 and IGRP are both classful distance vector routing protocols, EIGRP is a hybrid protocol that supports classless addressing.

Difference between classful and classless ip addresses?

The difference between classful IP addressing and classless IP addressing is in selecting the number of bits used for the network ID portion of an IP address. In classful IP addressing, the network ID portion can take only the predefined number of bits 8, 16, or 24. In classless addressing, any number of bits can be assigned to the network ID.


If you worked on an older network that could not interpret classless addressing and your network id was 1452700 what is the theoretical maximum number of different subnets you could create on this net?

Is Australia a classless society?

During much of the 20th Century, many Australians considered Australia to be a classless society because there was no entrenched upper class as in Britain. Australians had a habit of addressing anyone by their first name, regardless of their economic or political status, and pretending to be on the same socioeconomic level. The belief in a classless society was gradually eroded by two things: increasing awareness of the racist relationship between white Australians and the country's original inhabitants, and the emergence of new-rich entrepreneurs in the 1980s.
