In a router's routing table, which component specifies the destination network address used to match the destination IP of incoming packets?
Next hop
Network mask
Prefix
Administrative distance
The prefix represents the destination network address in the routing table that a router uses to match against the destination IP address of incoming packets. It indicates the network portion of the IP address and is crucial for determining the appropriate route. The network mask defines the subnet mask associated with the prefix but does not directly specify the destination network. The next hop refers to the IP address of the next router to which the packet should be forwarded, and the administrative distance is a value that rates the trustworthiness of routing information received from different routing protocols.
