For a router to forward packets with a destination on a network not in the routing table the gateway of last resort must be set. This can be done on a Cisco router by going to global configuration mode and entering the following: Router(config)ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 s0/0/0 this will cause the router to forward all packets with a destination not in the routing table out serial interface 0/0/0.

Explain how the transport layer correlates with process-to-process delivery?

The transport layer is in charge for process-to-process delivery of the intact message. An application program running on a host machine runs a process but the network layer run source-to-destination delivery of individual packets and it does not have any relationship between those packets. It's treated independently, as though each packet belonged to a separate message. The transport layer task is to ensure that the entire message arrives without error and in sequence and handles error control and flow control at the source-to-destination level.

What is icmp?

ICMP is the "Internet Control Message Protocol". ICMP packets are small packets used in local networks and on the Internet, most typically, for network troubleshooting and problem location. ICMP may be used for reporting the route packets are taking to reach an arbitrary destination either locally or on the Internet or to determine if a particular local or Internet connected device is reachable and/or responding. Various operating systems make use of the ICMP protocol for the above mentioned purposes via utilities such as 'traceroute' and 'ping' in the UNIX/Linux world, or 'tracert' and 'ping' in the Windows world.

Is a digital video file broken into packets to send to the internet?

yes. it is.. every data that is sent over a network is broken down into packets to conserve the bandwidth and control congestion and also to ensure the faster delivery of data at the receiver site. Under ATM Networks, the videos sent over AAL5 (ATM Adaptive Layer 5).
