CompTIA Network+ (N10-009) — Question 407

Which of the following uses the longest prefix match to determine an exit interface?

Answer options

• A. ARP table
• B. MAC address table
• C. Routing table
• D. Netstat table

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The routing table is responsible for determining the best path for packets based on the longest prefix match. The ARP table and MAC address table are not used for routing decisions, while the Netstat table provides network statistics but does not influence exit interfaces.
