A

To advertise the network of the interface fa0/0, we need to specify the network address and the subnet mask that covers the range of IP addresses associated with the interface. The network address is the first IP address in the subnet, and the subnet mask specifies the range of IP addresses in the subnet.

The IP address of the fa0/0 interface is x.x.x.33 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.224. This means that the network address for this subnet is x.x.x.32, and the subnet mask specifies that there are 30 usable IP addresses in the subnet (x.x.x.32 - x.x.x.63).

To advertise this network using BGP, we need to specify the network address and the subnet mask. The correct answer is:

A. x.x.x.32 mask 255.255.255.224

This specifies the network address as x.x.x.32 and the subnet mask as 255.255.255.224, which covers the range of IP addresses associated with the fa0/0 interface.

Option B is incorrect because it does not specify the mask in the correct format. The correct format for a subnet mask is "255.255.255.0" or "255.255.255.128" etc.

Option C is incorrect because it specifies the subnet mask as 0.0.0.31, which is incorrect. The correct subnet mask for this subnet is 255.255.255.224.

Option D is incorrect because it specifies the IP address of the interface, not the network address. To advertise the network of the interface, we need to specify the network address and the subnet mask that covers the range of IP addresses in the subnet.
