An administrator is configuring a static route on Router B to direct traffic to Router A's internal network (IP range 172.17.10.0 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0) via interface tunnel.1. In CIDR notation, the destination network prefix for this static route is _____.

### Why this is right The lab assigns Site A's internal network the prefix 172.17.10.0/24. Site B's route to that remote network uses `tunnel.1` and has no next hop specified. ### The concept A network prefix identifies the destination subnet rather than an individual host. The `/24` prefix means the route is for the network range specified by the lab. Site B uses this route to send Site A-bound traffic into the VPN tunnel. ### Terms - **Subnet**: A defined range of IP addresses treated as a network. - **Prefix**: The network portion of an address written with a slash length, such as `/24`. ### Remember Site B routes to Site A's 172.17.10.0/24 network.
