Click on the arrows to vote for the correct answer
A. B. C. D.D
The destination IP address 192.168.1.159 falls within the range of network address 192.168.1.144/29 and broadcast address 192.168.1.151/29. Therefore, the route with the destination IP address 192.168.1.144/29 will be selected.
Looking at the routing table output, we can see that there is only one route that matches the destination network 192.168.1.144/29, and it points to the next-hop IP address 10.20.14.131 via the interface ge-0/0/0.0.
Therefore, the answer is C. 10.20.14.131.
