Refer to the exhibit below. Host A is communicating with host B. How will the data be addressed when it leaves host A?

Two TestKing hosts are shown below:

A. Source MAC=000A.8A47.E612
Destination MAC=000B.DC04.12F4
Source IP=192.168.23.4
Destination IP=192.168.23.1

B. Source MAC=000A.8A47.E612
Destination MAC=0010.7BE7.FAEF
Source IP=192.168.23.4
Destination IP=192.168.127.7

C. Source MAC=000A.8A47.E612
Destination MAC=000B.DC04.12F4
Source IP=192.168.23.4
Destination IP=192.168.127.7

D. Source MAC=000A.8A47.E612
Destination MAC=0010.7BE7.FAEF
Source IP=192.168.23.4
Destination IP=192.168.23.1

E. None of the above

Answer: B

Explanation:

When packets leave from the host, the packets contains the source MAC and IP of the
host address. The source and destination IP address will not change (if it did, the router
devices would not know where to send the data). Because the host knows that the
destination is on another subnet, it will forward the packet to the default gateway device,
so the destination MAC address will be of the default gateway, which is the LAN
interface of router TestKing1.
