What address does the router use to compare to the routing table?
in general the router uses the network address to compare to the routing table. Specifically, on the internet, the Router looks up the destination IP address in the router table to determine where to route the packet.
Does the router do after it determines that a data packet from Network 1 should be forwarded to?
A router would then consult its tables to determine what the next router address should be, and the best route.
Which information is used by the router to determine the path between the source and destination?
network portion of ip address
Which information is used by the router to determine the path between the source and destination hosts?
network portion of ip address
When a host on network A sends a message to a host on network B which address does the router look at?
When a host on network A sends a message to a host on network B, the router looks at the destination IP address in the packet’s header to determine where to forward the message. This IP address is used to identify the specific network and host within that network. The router uses its routing table to decide the best path for the packet based on this destination IP address. The MAC address is not used for routing between different networks, as it only applies to the local network segment.
What devices transfer packet across multiply network and use tables to store address to determine to best destination?
Routers
Which portion of a receiving machines ip address 172.16.3.0 16 in this instance would a router use to determine the destination network?
172.16.0.0
Which part a network layer address does the router use during path determination?
The network address
What assigns IP address to network?
Usually the router.
When forwarding a route which route will router 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.
How do you setup eigrp protocol?
router#config t router(config)#router eigrp 100 #net NETWORK ADDRESS
Will including a router improve computer security?
A router can improve network security if it includes the use of NAT (network address translation) and/or a firewall.
