The IP address of the default gateway of Host A can be configured to be 
202.38.160.111. 
Normally, Switch A functions as the gateway, but when Switch A is turned off or 
malfunctions, Switch B will function as the gateway instead. 
Configure Switch A to operate in preemptive mode, so that it can resume its gateway 
function as the master switch after recovery.
