Refer to the exhibit. A technician is testing connection problems in the internetwork. What is the
problem indicated by the output from HostA?
A.
The Fa0/24 interface of Switch1 is down.
B.
The gateway address of HostA is incorrect or not configured.
C.
The routing on Router2 is not functioning properly.
D.
An access list is applied to an interface of Router3.
Explanation:
Since pings sent to router Router1 are successful, we know that basic connectivity exists at least
to the first hop toward the destination. However, when we perform a traceroute to the destination,
the first hop does not show up at all. This is due to the fact that the host does not have a default
gateway specified, and therefore does not know where to send traffic with a destination address in
a different subnet.
