16.3.3 What did I learn in this module?

Packet Processing with Static Routes

1. The packet arrives on the interface of R1.

2. R1 does not have a specific route to the destination network; therefore, R1 uses the
default static route.
3. R1 encapsulates the packet in a new frame. Because the link to R2 is a point-to-point link,
R1 adds an "all 1s" address for the Layer 2 destination address.
4. The frame is forwarded out of the appropriate interface. The packet arrives on the
interface on R2.
5. R2 de-encapsulates the frame and looks for a route to the destination. R2 has a static
route to the destination network out of one of its interfaces.
6. R2 encapsulates the packet in a new frame. Because the link to R3 is a point-to-point link,
R2 adds an "all 1s" address for the Layer 2 destination address.
7. The frame is forwarded out of the appropriate interface. The packet arrives on the
interface on R3.
8. R3 de-encapsulates the frame and looks for a route to the destination. R3 has a
connected route to the destination network out of one of its interfaces.
9. R3 looks up the ARP table entry for the destination network to find the Layer 2 MAC
address for PC3. If no entry exists, R3 sends an ARP request out of one of its interfaces,
and PC3 responds with an ARP reply, which includes the PC3 MAC address.
10. R3 encapsulates the packet in a new frame with the MAC address of the appropriate
interface as the source Layer 2 address and the MAC address of PC3 as the destination
MAC address.
11. The frame is forwarded out of the appropriate interface. The packet arrives on the network
interface card (NIC) interface of PC3.

Troubleshoot IPv4 Static and Default Route Configuration

Networks are frequently subject to events that can cause their status to change. An interface
can fail, or a service provider drops a connection. Links can become oversaturated, or an

adjacent router. However, the route is not shown in the routing table. Which command would
the administrator use to verify that the exit interface is up?
