I'm going to have to go with B. If the router is doing source NAT, the packets will definitely go through the forward chain. Unless, of course, the router is sentient and just likes to mess with us.

No, it wouldn't make sense for the packets to go through the input chain in this case.

So, it's definitely not the input chain then.

Yeah, that makes sense since the router is doing source NAT.

I think you're right, the packets will go through the forward chain.

I bet the packets go through the output chain just to keep the router engineers on their toes. That's how they get you on these exams!

Hmm, I'm not too sure about this one. Maybe I should have paid more attention in my MikroTik router configuration class.

D seems like the best answer to me. The packets will go through the input chain before the routing decision, and then through the output chain after the NAT translation.

Exactly. It's important to understand the flow of packets in this scenario to troubleshoot any issues that may arise.

That makes sense. So, the packets are processed by the input chain first and then the output chain after NAT translation.

So, the packets go through the input chain before and output chain after the NAT translation.

I agree, D is the correct answer. The packets go through the input chain before routing decision and then through the output chain after NAT translation.

Yes, I agree. After the routing decision, the packets go through the output chain.

I think D is correct because the packets go through the input chain before routing decision.

I think the correct answer is B. The packets will go through the forward chain since the router is performing source NAT to route the traffic between the internal network and the external web page.
