Q7. What is true about IP routing?
|
A. The frame changes at each hop B. The source IP address changes at each hop C. The destination IP address changes at each hop D. The hardware interface addresses remain constant |
Correct answer: A
Explanation:
IP Packets are transported from source network to the destination network by what is known as routing. Hop-by-hop routing model is used by the Internet for delivery of packets. At each hop, the destination IP address is examined, the best next hop is determined by the routing protocol (such as RIP, OSPF or BGP) and the packet is forwarded by one more hop through this route. The same process takes place at the next hop. During this process, the logical addresses remain same. In an IP network, the logical addresses are IP addresses. The hardware interface addresses, such as MAC address change with each hop.
