Refer to the exhibit. After this configuration is applied to router R1, a network engineer verifies the implementation. If all links are functioning normally and the engineer sends a series of packets from PC1 to PC3, how are the packets routed?

  • A They are distributed sent round robin to interfaces S0/0/0 and S0/0/1
  • B They are routed to 10.0.0.2
  • C They are routed to 192.168.100.2
  • D They are routed to 172.16.20.2
Explanation

When multiple static routes exist for the same destination, the router installs the one with the lowest administrative distance. The default route through 172.16.20.2 uses the normal static-route administrative distance of 1, while the default route through 10.0.0.2 is configured with administrative distance 20, so it acts as a floating backup route. Therefore, under normal conditions, packets are forwarded to 172.16.20.2.
