I'm going with B. The firewall rules are the key, and the controller has to follow them, right?

Easy peasy, the answer is B. The firewall rules are clear, and the question is asking about the controller's treatment of the packets.

I think the answer is B as well. The controller permits the packet to 10.1.10.10 and drops the packet to 203.0.13.5.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. The question says the exhibit shows the firewall rules, but I don't see any mention of the controller's behavior. I'll have to think about this one.

I'm pretty sure it's C. The rules seem to permit both packets, so the controller should allow them through.

The exhibit is clear, the controller treats HTTPS packets differently for the two IP addresses. It permits traffic to 10.1.10.10 but drops traffic to 203.0.13.5.
