A network administrator enters the following command into Router1: ip route 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 S0/1/0. Router1 then receives a packet that is destined for 192.168.0.22/24. After finding the recently configured static route in the routing table, what does Router1 do next to process the packet?
- drops the packet because the destination host is not listed in the routing table
- looks up the MAC address of the S0/1/0 interface to determine the destination MAC address of the new frame
- performs a recursive lookup for the IP address of the S0/1/0 interface before forwarding the packet
- encapsulates the packet into a frame for the WAN link and forwards the packet out the S0/1/0 interface
Explanation: The router will encapsulate the packet for the WAN link and then forward the packet out the S0/1/0 interface. The packet will not be dropped because the destination is in the routing table. The MAC address lookup will not be the next item to do to process the packet. A recursive lookup will not be required as the exit interface is identified in the route statement.
