H12-211 Exam - Question 56


Two routers are configured with OSPFv3. OSPFv3 is enabled on all interfaces of each router.

Which of the following is true in the event that the network administrator does not configure a Router-ID?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

If a Router-ID is not specifically configured, OSPFv3 will automatically assign the highest IP address on an active interface as the router ID. Typically, the IP address of the loopback 0 interface, if available, will be used as the router ID since loopback interfaces are considered more stable than physical interfaces.

why the answer correct is the D? Isn't it supposed that when you don't configure a router-id, it's the highest loopback that takes over the role of router-id?
