Networking Fundamentals — Question 54

Tracert is used to:

Answer options

• A. Manage routing tables dynamically.
• B. Manage session-oriented connections between nodes.
• C. Report the route taken by packets across an IP network.
• D. Report the shortest route between different networks.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer, C, is accurate because Tracert traces the path that packets take to reach a destination in an IP network. Options A and B are incorrect as they pertain to different network functionalities, while D is misleading as Tracert does not necessarily find the shortest route; it merely shows the path taken.
