The customer must be really popular if they want to 'discard' traffic to their IP address. Maybe they have a black hole in their living room?

Wait, are we sure the customer wanted to 'discard' the traffic and not 'block' it? I'm so confused right now.

Discarding packets and returning an ICMP error? That's like sending a 'Sorry, I don't want your traffic' message. I'm going with B.

I agree, it's like saying 'Sorry, I don't want your traffic'.

Hmm, 'blac' doesn't sound like a valid command. I bet the correct answer is C, the switch will discard packets silently.

The switch will not discard packets to the destined host? That's not very helpful for the customer, is it?

But wouldn't discarding packets silently make more sense in this scenario?
