Match each description with an appropriate IP address. (Not all options are used.)

Link-Local addresses are assigned automatically by the OS environment and are located in the block 169.254.0.0/16. The private addresses ranges are 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/16. TEST-NET addresses belong to the range 192.0.2.0/24. The addresses in the block 240.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.254 are reserved as experimental addresses. Loopback addresses belong to the block 127.0.0.0/8.

• 127.0.0.1: This is a loopback address. It’s used by a host to send traffic to itself for testing and troubleshooting.
• 198.133.219.2: This would be considered a public address. It’s a routable IP address on the internet, not within the private IP address ranges.
• 169.254.1.5: This is a link-local address. In IPv4, addresses in the 169.254.0.0/16 range are used for automatic IP addressing when no external DHCP server is available (APIPA).
• 240.2.6.255: This address falls within the range of 240.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.254, which is reserved for future use, often considered as part of the experimental address space, although it was originally designated for Class E network purposes.
• 172.18.45.9: This IP address is within the range of 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255, which is designated for private networks and is not a public IP address. However, without a clear label for a private address in the image you provided, and since the address is not specifically linked to any of the other listed descriptions, it’s less clear which description it should be matched to. In common practice, an IP address in this range would be considered a private address.

Please note that this is based on common networking knowledge and the typical use of these IP ranges; the matching might differ if the context provided in the exercise specifies alternative interpretations.
