B and C. With CIDR‚ between 13 and 27 bits of an IP address can refer to the network segment while the remaining bits refer to the host portion. For example‚ in the case of 27 bits‚ this would result in a network segment with 30 hosts (2 to the power of (32-27) -2). CIDR offers major benefits: Fewer entries are needed in routing tables since several contiguous network segments can be aggregated into one IP address CIDR makes more IP addresses available. Dispensing with the rigid rules of classful
