network?

Where does the PC send the

packet if the destination is not
on its own network?

Where does the PC look for the

default gateway MAC address?

What does the PC do if the

MAC address is not in the ARP
table?

Excellent description of how a

packet travels from one pc to
another. Make certain you
understand the steps. Note any
questions you have about the
process.
