Actual exam question for GIAC's GSNA exam
Question #: 56
Topic #: 6
[All GSNA Questions]

The following output is generated by running the show ip route command:

RouterA#show ip route

< - - Output Omitted for brevity - ->

Which next hop address will RouterA use in forwarding traffic to 10.10.100.0/24?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The routing table displays various RIP and Connected routes. There is no routing entry for 10.10.100.0/24, but there is a default route in the

routing table using 172.18.1.1 as the next hop router. Given that 10.10.100.0/24 does not have a direct entry in the routing table, RouterA

will forward traffic to the default route next hop address of 172.18.1.1.

Answer A is incorrect. The address does not appear in the routing table as a next hop router, in addition to being an actual subnet

number for 192.168.10.0/24.

Answer C is incorrect. 172.18.50.1 is the next hop for reaching 192.168.11.0.

Answer B is incorrect. 172.18.60.1 is the next hop for reaching 192.168.12.0.

I'm feeling confident about this one. The next hop for the 10.10.100.0/24 network should be listed in the output, and I believe the correct answer is B) 172.18.60.1.

That makes sense, the output usually shows the next hop address for each network.

I'm not sure, but I think the correct answer is 172.18.1.1 because of the routing table logic.

Hmm, I was wondering if there would be a trick question here. But B) 172.18.60.1 seems like the most logical choice based on the information provided.
