Can a packet be forwarded without a route?
No packet can be forwarded without a route. Whether the packet is originating in a host or being forwarded by an intermediary device, the device must have a route to identify where to forward the packet.
When the destination network is not listed in the routing table of a cisco router what two possible actions the router might take?
The router discards the packet.The router forwards the packet out the interface indicated by the default route entry.
What is the preferred route in the route lookup process?
The longest match of letmost bits
What are true statements about routes and their use?
--> If the destination network is directly connected, the router forwards the packet to the destination host. --> If no route exists for the destination network and a default route is present, the packet is forwarded to the next-hop router. --> If the originating host has a default gateway configured, the packet for a remote network can be forwarded using that route.
When forwarding a packet which route will the packet select?
First, routing is the process a router performs when making forwarding decisions for each packet arriving at the gateway interface. To forward a packet to a destination network, the router requires a route to that network. If a route to a destination network does not exist on the router, the packet will be forwarded to the default gateway. Now, the destination network can be a number of routers or hops away from the default gateway. If the router has an entry for the network in its routing table, it would only indicate the next-hop router to which the packet is to be forwarded to and not the exact route to the final router. To sum it up, the routing process uses a routing table to map the destination address to the next hop and then forwards the packet to the next-hop address.
Each route that a packet takes to reach the next device is called what?
A hop
Why is the oral or enteric route preferred for nutritional support over parenteral route?
The oral/enteral route is safer and more physiological.
What is the preferred method for conducting a route reconnaissance?
The AC method.

Which layer determines the route a packet takes from sender to sender to receiver?
Network Layer
Is it possible to track a packet's journey across the internet?
Yes. Using trace route.
If a router receives a packet that is does not know how to forward what type of route must be configured on the router to prevent the router from dropping it?
