Subnet masks? More like 'subnet nightmares'! I'm just hoping the exam question doesn't involve binary-to-decimal conversions. That's where I really start to lose my mind.

Ah, subnetting. The bane of every network admin's existence. I wonder if they'll give extra credit for answering this question while juggling fire.

This question is making my head spin! I can't decide between the options. Maybe I should just go with my gut and choose 255.255.255.224. After all, what could go wrong?

Wait, wait, wait. I'm not sure about this one. Is 255.255.255.224 really the correct subnet mask? I better double-check my work before submitting my answer.

Hmm, let me think this through. If the largest branch needs 26 hosts, we need at least 32 IP addresses. That means the subnet mask should be 255.255.255.224. I'm confident this is the right answer.

I'm not sure, but I think the answer might be D) 255.255.255.224 because it allows for 30 hosts which is close to the required 26 hosts for the largest branch
