What is the simplest way to configure routing between the regional office network 10.89.0.0/20
and the corporate network?
A.
router1(config)#ip route 10.89.0.0 255.255.240.0 10.89.16.2
B.
router2(config)#ip route 10.89.3.0 255.255.0.0 10.89.16.2
C.
router1(config)#ip route 10.89.0.0 255.255.240.0 10.89.16.1
D.
router2(config)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.89.16.1
Explanation:
The fourth command makes it possible for all hosts beyond R2 and all hosts beyond R1 to interact
with each other, hence it is the most simplest technique.
Maybe I don’t understand this question, but whenever a route can be specified, it should be specified. There may be internal hosts at the regional office network that may need route traffic through the firewall and back internally (router on a stick). While setting the default route to 10.89.16.1 may be the simplest, it is likely the worst idea.
I take somewhat of what I said back. Theoretically, directly connected routes should automatically be created. But still, I don’t think it is a good question.
