The document discusses TCP/IP networking concepts. It provides explanations for multiple choice questions. The key points are:
- At the transport layer, a host will de-encapsulate a TCP segment when receiving a message.
- When sending to ServerB, HostA will generate an IP packet to RouterA and a frame to SwitchA with the MAC address of RouterA.
- A NIC uses the destination MAC address to decide whether to accept an incoming frame.
- If the default gateway is incorrectly configured, a host will not be able to communicate with other networks. The default gateway is the router interface IP address on the local network.

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.
