CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate — Question 76

A packet is destined for 10.10.1.22. Which static route does the router choose to forward the packet?

Answer options

• A. ip route 10.10.1.0 255.255.255.240 10.10.255.1
• B. ip route 10.10.1.20 255.255.255.252 10.10.255.1
• C. ip route 10.10.1.16 255.255.255.252 10.10.255.1
• D. ip route 10.10.1.20 255.255.255.254 10.10.255.1

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the static route for 10.10.1.20 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.252 covers the address 10.10.1.22. The other options either do not include 10.10.1.22 within their defined ranges or use subnet masks that do not match the required destination address.
