Suggested Answer: C 🗳️
The private IP address ranges defined in RFC 1918 are as follows:
10.0.0.0 "" 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 "" 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 "" 192.168.255.255
These IP addresses should never be allowed from external networks into a corporate network as they would only be able to reach the network from the outside via routing problems or if the IP addresses were spoofed. This ACL is used to prevent all packets with a spoofed reserved private source IP address to enter the network. The log keyword also enables logging of this intrusion attempt.
