Refer to the exhibit. The network manager is evaluating the efficiency of the current network design. RIPv2 is enabled on all Layer 3 devices in the network.
What network devices participate in passing traffic from the PC at 10.10.1.7 to File Server at 10.20.1.6 in the older that they will forward traffic from source to destination?
A.
Switch1, Switch2
B.
Switch1, Switch2, Switch2, Switch2
C.
Switch1, Router1, Switch1, Switch2
D.
Switch1, Router1, Router2, Switch2
The PC and File Server are in different VLANs so surely traffic from PC to File Server must go through Router1 but which path will the packet go next, through Router 2 or Switch1? Well, it is a hard question to answer.
As many comments said “the connection between R1 and Switch is Blue, so that means its under Vlan 10, and R2 to Switch 2 is red. The two routers do not have subinterfaces and are not running router on a stick basing on the color of the links” so D should be the correct answer.
I have the same idea.
