QuestionQ625

IP Connectivity

Which is a reason for implementing IPv4 private addressing?

  • A Comply with PCI regulations.
  • B Reduce the size of the forwarding table on network routers.
  • C Reduce the risk of a network security breach.
  • D Comply with local law.
Explanation

IPv4 private addressing exists to let organizations use internal addresses that are not globally routable, conserving public IPv4 space and preventing those internal prefixes from needing to appear in the public Internet routing system. That supports smaller routing/forwarding tables on Internet routers through route containment rather than advertising every internal network publicly.
