Could you help me with this. Thank you

Host A attaches to the above institutional network for the first time. The Ethernet link comes up. Suppose ARP, DNS and web caches are empty. What minimum network configuration does Host A need to communicate with other hosts within a subnet and off-subnet? As hints to answer this question, ask yourself the following: a) What address does a source host need to send and receive IP Packets? What range of addresses are valid for this host given the topology above? b) What address does a source host need to know to send packets to a destination host that is not on the same subnet? c) How does a source host know whether a destination is on or off-subnet? d) How does a source host resolve a destination hostname to an IP address? List the network configuration needed, and the valid values of this configuration based on the information in the network topology above. Answers: a) b) c) e)
