JNCIS-ENT Exam - Question 32


Two routers share the same highest priority and start time.

In this situation, what is evaluated next when determining the designated router?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

When two routers share the same highest priority and start time in an OSPF network, the next criterion evaluated to determine the designated router (DR) is the router ID. The router with the highest router ID becomes the DR. This ensures a deterministic and straightforward method for resolving ties in the DR election process.

On a broadcast network, DR election takes place based on OSPF router priority. The Priority is set to 128 by default by JUNOS software. In case of a tie, the router with highest router-id is elected the DR. https://sites.google.com/site/amitsciscozone/juniper-junos/junos--ospf-designated-router
