Which of the following will result if the subnet of a host includes the default router but the subnet of the default router does NOT include the host?
A) The host can route packets outside the subnet, but the rest of the network cannot route back to the host.
B) The host cannot route packets outside the subnet, but the rest of the network can route back to the host.
C) The host and subnet/network cannot exchange any packets.
D) Routing will still function for the host with the rest of the network, including the local subnet.
A
Explanation: A) If the default router does not see the host in its local subnet, then it will not route traffic to it. The host can see the default router, though, so traffic can get out from the host.
