Question

A router receives a packet for 10.20.30.70. Its table has 10.20.0.0/16, 10.20.30.0/24 and 10.20.30.64/26. Which route is selected?

A 10.20.0.0/16 because it was learned first.
B 10.20.30.0/24 because classful routing prefers a /24.
C 10.20.30.64/26 because longest-prefix matching selects it.
D All three routes are load-balanced because they contain the destination.
E 10.20.30.0/24 because the /26 route is considered a host route.
