Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) 200-301 — Question 348

The correct answer is B. Option B: It selects the RIP route because it has the longest prefix inclusive of the destination address

Explanation

Routers choose the matching route with the longest prefix before comparing administrative distance or metric. OSPF elects a designated router on multiaccess networks to reduce adjacency and LSA exchange overhead. NAT translates addresses between network domains, commonly conserving public IPv4 addresses.
