You are a Network technician hired by a company to assist their Network administrator. Network administrator asked you to configure IPv4 addresses for two computers.
Network administrator has the following requirements.
1 - Limit the available number of IPv4 addresses in each network as minimum as possible.
2 - Two computers must be able to communicate via IPv4, after the address configuration.
3 - IPv4 addresses given to you to configure are and 192.168.10.199 192.168.10.250.
4 - Subnet mask given is 255.255.255.248.
5 - You cannot use any other IPv4 address other than the two given, as in 3rd requirement.
6 – You may use another subnet mask, if you want, but only after satisfying the 1st requirement.
You configured IPv4 addresses and subnet mask as required by the Network administrator, but you are not able to receive ping replies between those two computers. What change in subnet mask you will make to ping those two computers via IPv4, by keeping the same IPv4 addresses and the other requirement of the Network administrator.
