What is the slash designation for a Class C network?

  1. /16

  2. /24

  3. /8

  4. /32

The correct answer is: /24

A Class C network is a network that uses the slash designation /24, which indicates that the first 24 bits in the IP address represent the network address, leaving 8 bits for host addresses. This allows for up to 254 hosts on the network. Options A, C, and D are incorrect as they represent the slash designations for Class A (/8), Class B (/16), and Class D (/32) networks respectively. Class A, B, and D networks have different ranges of addresses and are not designated as Class C networks. Therefore, option B (/24) is the most appropriate and accurate slash designation for a Class C network.
