Which information is used by routers to forward a data packet toward its destination?
source data-link address
source IP address
destination IP address
destination data-link address
A router receives a packet from the Gigabit 0/0 interface and determines that the packet needs to be forwarded out the Gigabit 0/1 interface. What will the router do next?
route the packet out of the gigabit 0/1 interface
look into the routing table to determine if the destination network is in the routing table
create a new Layer 2 ethernet frame to be sent to the destination
look into the ARP cache to determine the destination IP address
The IP address of which device interface should be used as the default gateway setting of host H1?
R1: G0/0
R1: S0/0/0
R2: S0/0/0
R2: S0/0/1
During the process of forwarding traffic, what will the router do immediately after matching the destination IP address to a network on a directly connected routing table entry?
analyze the destination IP address
look up the next-hop address for the packet
switch the packet to the directly connected interface
discard the traffic after consulting the route table
What will a router do if it cannot determine where to forward an incoming packet?
The router will send an incident message to the network administrator.
The router will save it in the sending queue and try to forward it again later.
The router will drop it
The router will forward it out to all interfaces.
In implementing a LAN in a corporation, what is an advantage of dividing hosts between multiple networks connected by a distribution layer?
It increases traffic bandwidth between segments through distribution layer devices.
Only LAN switches are needed.
It splits up broadcast domains and decreases traffic
It reduces complexity and expense by using LAN switch devices.
What type of route is indicated by the code C in an IPv4 routing table on a Cisco router?
default route
static route
directly connected route
dynamic route that is learned through EIGRP
Which portion of the network layer address does a router use to forward packets?
gateway address
broadcast address
host portion
network portion
What role does a router play on a network?
connecting smaller networks into a single broadcast domain
forwarding frames based on a MAC address
selecting the path to destination networks
forwarding Layer 2 broadcasts
A router receives an incoming packet and determines that the destination host is located on a LAN directly attached to one of the router interfaces. Which destination address will the router use to encapsulate the Ethernet frame when forwarding the packet?
MAC address of the SVI on the switch
MAC address of the interface of the connected router
MAC address of the default gateway of the LAN
MAC address of the destination host
Which address should be configured as the default gateway address of a client device?
the Layer 2 address of the switch port that is connected to the workstation
the IPV4 address of the router interface that is connected to the same LAN
the IPV4 address of the router interface that is connected to the internet
the Layer 2 address of the switch management interface
