As mentioned, you can use the internet or any software on your PC during a MikroTik exam.

Simply put it into an IP Calculator on the web or on your PC and see if the IP pairs can communicate directly.

Thank you very much, Pateutz.

So, still no shortcut, really has to calculate one by one and compare. Time consuming.
