H12-211 Exam - Question 30


The administrator uses the ping command on the host to test connectivity to the website www.huawei.com.

The command line shows a request time out. The administrator displays the ARP entries for the host.

Which entry will be found in the ARP cache table of the host?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

The ARP cache stores the MAC addresses of devices that are directly connected to the local network segment. In this scenario, when the host tries to ping an external website like www.huawei.com, it requires the MAC address of the router interface (gateway) to forward the packets outside the local network. Since ARP is used to map IP addresses to MAC addresses, the host will have the MAC address of the router interface (in this case, interface G0/0/0) in its ARP cache rather than the MAC address of the destination website or the switch.
