    B is correct
    gateway is 10.10.0.1

    For example, to add a static route to the 10.0.0.0 network that uses a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0, a gateway of 192.168.0.1, and a cost metric of 2, you type the following at a command prompt:

    route add 10.0.0.0 mask 255.0.0.0 192.168.0.1 metric 2

    The answer is correct. Please don’t confuse people. There’s a tiny typo and the answer shouldn’t have a “space” between 1 and 6 and should read:

    route.exe add -p 172.16.16.0 mask 255.255.252.0 10.10.0.1

    172.16.16.0 /22 = first ip 172.16.16.1, last ip 172.16.19.254 (.255 = broadcast).

    So B is correct

    You create a persistent route to all those subnets and use 10.10.0.1 as gateway.

      I agree. I get that B is the correct answer, but wouldn’t D be correct as well?

      Class B networks only looks at the first 2 octet as the network, i.e 172.16.x.x.

      This means the 172.16.0.0 network includes both 172.16.16.0 and 172.16.18.0 in it, so either answer should be correct?

      If you plug in the numbers in here:
      http://www.subnetmask.info/

      And then list the networks, you’ll see what I mean.

    The correct answer is B.
    Just to let you know My friends, usually is a small company a System admin does the network administration. so knowing the networking concepts is a must.

    I will explain why the answer is B, using an easiest way by converting to binary, even the answer is so clear just by looking to the proposed options:

    I will convert only the third digit

    172.16. 0001 0000. 0
    172.16. 0001 0001. 0
    172.16. 0001 0010. 0
    172.16. 0001 0011. 0

    as you see the common part of all the subnets is: 172.16. 0001 (22 bits in common)
    so to get the network, fill the rest with 0

    172.16. 0001 0000. 0 ========> 172.16.16.0 /22

    This is a very very basic way, I dont use it because its a class/beginner demonstration.

    Hope it helps
