A network administrator has received the IPv6 prefix 2001:DB8::/48 for subnetting. Assuming the administrator does not subnet into the interface ID portion of the address space, how many subnets can the administrator create from the /48 prefix?

Respuesta :

Answer:

subnets=65536

Explanation:

As we know that,

-->interface ID portion of address starts from 64

--> we have 48 network prefix

so

available bits for subnet are = 64-48=  16

so with 16 bit address we can create subnet = 2^16 = 65535
