You have two OSPF routers forming an adjacency. R1 has a priority of 32 and a router ID of 192.168.1.2. R2 has a priority of 64 and a router ID of 192.168.1.1. The routers were started at the same time and all other OSPF settings are the default settings.
Which statement is correct in this scenario?
When OSPF routers form an adjacency, the router with the highest priority will become the Designated Router (DR), and the one with the second-highest priority will become the Backup Designated Router (BDR). In this scenario, R2 has a priority of 64, which is higher than R1's priority of 32. Therefore, R2 will become the DR, and R1, having the next highest priority, will become the BDR.
D. R1 will be the BDR. Explanation: The router with the highest OSPF priority becomes the DR. In this case, R2 has a higher priority (64) compared to R1's priority (32). Hence, R2 will become the DR. The router with the next highest priority becomes the BDR. Since R1 has the next highest priority after R2, R1 will become the BDR.
D is correct
