Refer to the exhibit. A network administrator is connecting a new host to the Medical LAN. The host needs to communicate with remote networks. What IP address would be configured as the default gateway on the new host?
- 192.168.191.189
- 192.168.191.1
- 10.190.191.254
- 198.51.100.213
- 192.168.190.70
| Explanation & Hint:
In the given configuration, the router interface “gi0/1” is connected to the Medical LAN with the IP address 192.168.191.189. This router interface serves as the gateway for hosts in the Medical LAN. So, the IP address that would be configured as the default gateway on the new host in the Medical LAN is 192.168.191.189. This IP address is the one assigned to the router’s interface connected to the Medical LAN, and it would be used as the default gateway for hosts in that LAN to communicate with remote networks. |
