A group of four friends is celebrating completion of the ECE3141 unit (and the end of stay-at-home restrictions) and is sitting together at a restaurant. Two of them have just about run out of data on their monthly plan and so are tethering their phones from two other friends. That is, A is tethered to a wifi hotspot on B, and C is tethered to a wifi hotspot on D. The owners of the tethered phones (A and C) decide to compare their wifi IP addresses and they find that their phones have the same IP address. Which of the following is true? Select one: O a. They must have made a mistake and actually been tethered from the same phone O b. When tethering other devices, a phone allocates addresses from the private IP address range and performs the NAT function, so it's OK that the IP addresses are the same O c. When the subnet masks are applied, the two addresses will be resolved O d. The MAC addresses of the two phones must also be the same O e. The IP addresses of the tethering phones (B and D) must also be the same Mar Notes (+ A group of four friends is celebrating completion of the ECE3141 unit (and the end of stay-at-home restrictions) and is sitting together at a restaurant.
