200-301 · Question #983

Refer to the exhibit. Which action by the router when a packet is sourced from 10.10.10.2 and destined 10.10.10.16?

The correct answer is C. It discards the packets.. 10.10.10.16 is not in the defined subnet range I.e. 10.10.10.0/28 and since default gateway is not set, packets to the undefined destination address will be dropped.
