Enter the appropriate word(s) to complete the statement.
27. The physical numeric address functions at a sublayer of the Data Link layer in the OSI network reference
model, called the ____________________.
28. In IPv6, _________________________ addresses are used to send an identical message to multiple hosts.
29. The activity of stealing (borrowing) bits from the host portion to further subdivide the network portion of an
address is called ____________________.
30. ____________________ combines contiguous network addresses by stealing bits from the network portion
and using them to create a single, larger contiguous address space for host addresses.
31. ____________________ informs the network interface card to pass packets sent to that address to the IP
stack so their contents can be read, and tells the IP gateway to forward such traffic onto the physical network,
where the listening network interface resides.
