Hi,

The destination and MAC IP address will be left unchanged since
communication is to the
end device.This is true for any TCP/IP communication:The destination MAC and
IP do not change, although the source IP and MAC address may.

The frame's destination MAC address will be the router's interface to which
the host's network is connected to also called Default-Gateway if we are
talking layer-2 here i.e. MAC address and not the IP address.

Please correct me if I am wrong ...

Thanks

Shahid
