A. B. C. D. E. F.AE
The command ip route 172.16.3.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.4 is used to configure a static route on a Cisco router. It specifies the destination network, the subnet mask, and the next-hop IP address or the exit interface. Here are the explanations for the two correct statements:
A. It establishes a static route to the 172.16.3.0 network.
This statement is true because the command specifies the destination network as 172.16.3.0 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. This means that any traffic destined for the 172.16.3.0 network will be forwarded by the router to the next-hop IP address or exit interface configured in the command.
B. It establishes a static route to the 192.168.2.0 network.
This statement is false because the command does not specify the 192.168.2.0 network as the destination network. Instead, it specifies the next-hop IP address or exit interface for the traffic destined for the 172.16.3.0 network.
C. It configures the router to send any traffic for an unknown destination to the 172.16.3.0 network.
This statement is false because the command does not configure the router to send any traffic for an unknown destination to the 172.16.3.0 network. Instead, it specifies a static route for the traffic destined for the 172.16.3.0 network.
D. It configures the router to send any traffic for an unknown destination out the interface with the address 192.168.2.4.
This statement is false because the command does not configure the router to send any traffic for an unknown destination out the interface with the address 192.168.2.4. Instead, it specifies a static route for the traffic destined for the 172.16.3.0 network.
E. It uses the default administrative distance.
This statement is false because the command does not specify the administrative distance. By default, a static route has an administrative distance of 1, which means it is preferred over any dynamic routes with a higher administrative distance.
F. It is a route that would be used last if other routes to the same destination exist.
This statement is false because the command specifies a static route with a specific next-hop IP address or exit interface. If there are other routes to the same destination network, the router will use the one with the best match to the destination network and the lowest administrative distance.
