B seems off too, it's not a forwarded packet.
TR

Definitely not A, that's just wrong.
AD

Wait, are you saying they go through both input and output chains?
LA
Laurena

I think it's D, that makes the most sense.
KE
Keva

Packets go through the output chain for sure.
CL

I believe the correct answer is D, since the packets would go through the input chain first before being routed back out.
BL

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like the input chain might be involved, but I can't recall the exact details.
JA

I think the packets would go through the forward chain since they are coming back from the internet to the internal host.

I remember something about how packets return through the router, but I'm not sure if it's input or output.
BR
Brandee

Okay, I think I've got this. Since the packets are going from an external web page to an internal host, they'll go through the input chain first before the routing decision.
LI

Hmm, I'm a bit confused about the difference between the input, forward, and output chains. I'll need to review those concepts.
KA

This looks like a tricky networking question. I'll need to think through the flow of packets carefully.
SH
Shayne

I'm pretty confident that the correct answer is D. The packets will go through the input chain before the routing decision, and then through the output chain after that.
DE

Okay, this is a good one. The key is to focus on how the seller's decisions around things like cash, real estate, patents, and debt can affect the overall value of the business. I've got a strategy for working through these different scenarios.

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.
WI
Wilburn

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

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

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

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

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!
KA
Kara

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

User 3: Actually, the packets go through the input chain before the routing decision and after that through output chain.
CH

User 2: No, I believe the packets go through the output chain.
JA
Javier

C) Packets go through the output chain
LA

User 1: I think the packets go through the forward chain.
SA

B) Packets go through the forward chain
SH

A) Packets go through the input chain
WE

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.
GL
Glen

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

That makes sense. So, the packets are processed by the input chain first and then the output chain after NAT translation.
GA
Gary
1 year ago
That makes sense. D is the best answer for this scenario.
MI
Misty
1 year ago
So, the packets go through the input chain before and output chain after the NAT translation.
ME
Melodie
1 year ago
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.
AL
Alline
1 year ago
Yes, I agree. After the routing decision, the packets go through the output chain.
TA
Tamala
1 year ago
I think D is correct because the packets go through the input chain before routing decision.
VA
Valentin
1 year ago
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.
BO

I'm not sure, but I think packets go through the output chain.
MA

I believe packets go through the input chain before the routing decision and after that through output chain.

I think the packets go through the forward chain.
