A network administrator is configuring a route to forward packets to a specific web server. What type of route should be configured by the administrator?

  • an OSPF route
  • a static route with an administrative distance higher than 1
  • a default route
  • a host route
  • an EIGRP route

Explanation: A host route is a route installed in the routing table where the destination address has a subnet mask of /32 for IPv4 or /128 for IPv6, an address of a specific device. A host route can allow for a more efficient processing of packets that are directed to the device, rather than for packet forwarding, such as by a default route, an OSPF route, or an EIGRP route.
