In a router's routing table, which component specifies the IP address to which packets are forwarded on their way to a specific destination network?
Administrative Distance
Next-Hop Address
Destination Network
Metric
The next-hop address in the routing table specifies the IP address of the adjacent router or device to which the packet should be sent to reach the destination network. It tells the router where to send the packet next. The metric represents the cost associated with a route, the administrative distance indicates the trustworthiness of a route, and the destination network specifies the network that the packet is ultimately trying to reach.
