When a router makes a routing decision for a packet that is received from one network and destined to another, which portion of the packet does if replace?
Correct Answer: A
Explanation/Reference: Explanation: Router Switching Function (1.2.1.1) A primary function of a router is to forward packets toward their destination. This is accomplished by using a switching function, which is the process used by a router to accept a packet on one interface and forward it out of another interface. A key responsibility of the switching function is to encapsulate packets in the appropriate data link frame type for the outgoing data link. NOTE: In this context, the term "switching" literally means moving packets from source to destination and should not be confused with the function of a Layer 2 switch. After the router has determined the exit interface using the path determination function, the router must encapsulate the packet into the data link frame of the outgoing interface. What does a router do with a packet received from one network and destined for another network? The router performs the following three major steps: Step 1. De-encapsulates the Layer 3 packet by removing the Layer 2 frame header and trailer. Step 2. Examines the destination IP address of the IP packet to find the best path in the routing table. Step 3. If the router finds a path to the destination, it encapsulates the Layer 3 packet into a new Layer 2 frame and forwards the frame out the exit interface.
