A workstation is configured with 192.168.10.130/25 and the gateway is 192.168.10.129. Which addressing statement about this host is correct?
Answers

BThe host is valid, sitting in the 192.168.10.128 to 192.168.10.255 range with the gateway inside the same subnet
CThe host is invalid because 192.168.10.130 is the network address of the range
DThe host is valid but the gateway must be on a different subnet to route traffic
