16.

Which PDU is processed when a host computer is de-encapsulating a message at


the transport layer of the TCP/IP model?
 bits
 frame
 packet
 segment*
Explain:
At the transport layer, a host computer will de-encapsulate a segment to
reassemble data to an acceptable format by the application layer protocol of the
TCP/IP model.
17. Refer to the exhibit. HostA is attempting to contact ServerB. Which two
statements correctly describe the addressing that HostA will generate in the
process? (Choose two.)

 A packet with the destination IP address of RouterB.


 A frame with the destination MAC address of SwitchA.
 A packet with the destination IP address of RouterA.
 A frame with the destination MAC address of RouterA.*
 A packet with the destination IP address of ServerB.*
 A frame with the destination MAC address of ServerB.
Explain:
In order to send data to ServerB, HostA will generate a packet that contains the
IP address of the destination device on the remote network and a frame that
contains the MAC address of the default gateway device on the local network.
18. Which address does a NIC use when deciding whether to accept a frame?
 source IP address
 source MAC address
 destination IP address
 destination MAC address*
 source Ethernet address
19. What will happen if the default gateway address is incorrectly configured on a
host?
 The host cannot communicate with other hosts in the local network.
 The switch will not forward packets initiated by the host.
 The host will have to use ARP to determine the correct address of the
default gateway.
 The host cannot communicate with hosts in other networks.*
 A ping from the host to 127.0.0.1 would not be successful.
Explain:
When a host needs to send a message to another host located on the same
network, it can forward the message directly. However, when a host needs to
send a message to a remote network, it must use the router, also known as the
default gateway. This is because the data link frame address of the remote
destination host cannot be used directly. Instead, the IP packet has to be sent to
the router (default gateway) and the router will forward the packet toward its
destination. Therefore, if the default gateway is incorrectly configured, the host
can communicate with other hosts on the same network, but not with hosts on
remote networks.
20. Which characteristic describes the default gateway of a host computer?
 the logical address of the router interface on the same network as the host
computer*
 the physical address of the switch interface connected to the host
computer
 the physical address of the router interface on the same network as the
host computer
 the logical address assigned to the switch interface connected to the router
Explain:
The default gateway is the IP address of an interface on the router on the same
network as the sending host.
