Understanding Cisco Cybersecurity Fundamentals (SECFND, legacy) — Question 43

A host using an IP address from the private IP range needs to connect to a website on the Internet. What function must be performed in order for the device to connect to the web service?

Answer options

• A. ACL
• B. NAT
• C. PBR
• D. PfR

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, NAT (Network Address Translation), which allows private IP addresses to be translated into a public IP address for Internet access. Options A (ACL), C (PBR), and D (PfR) do not relate directly to the process of enabling a private IP address to connect to external web services.
