Question 210
The acceptance test for regional route exchange at a retail network core in Chicago must confirm a fix for: OSPFv3 IPv6 adjacency does not initialize properly because a unique 32-bit router ID has not been configured in the routing process. Which outcome shows that the precise problem was corrected?
Explanation
Correct Answer
This is the observable outcome for ospfv3 router id. It tests whether the targeted change, 'Assign a distinct 32-bit OSPF router ID and activate the appropriate IPv6 interfaces', actually resolved the reported issue at a retail network core in Chicago. The original failure was: OSPFv3 IPv6 adjacency does not initialize properly because a unique 32-bit router ID has not been configured in the routing process.
Incorrect Answers
That observation verifies ospf dr bdr network type in a different situation, such as when a point-to-point link is configured with an OSPF broadcast network type and displays an unnecessary DR election. For the reported ospfv3 router id incident at a retail network core in Chicago, the required acceptance evidence is: The OSPFv3 process and expected IPv6 adjacencies are established with unique router IDs. This other result does not test that condition directly.
That observation verifies ospf area mismatch in a different situation, such as when two OSPF routers on one link receive hellos but use different area identifiers, preventing adjacency. For the reported ospfv3 router id incident at a retail network core in Chicago, the required acceptance evidence is: The OSPFv3 process and expected IPv6 adjacencies are established with unique router IDs. This other result does not test that condition directly.
That observation verifies ospf cost path choice in a different situation, such as when an engineer expects OSPF to choose the highest interface speed but configured interface cost forces a different path. For the reported ospfv3 router id incident at a retail network core in Chicago, the required acceptance evidence is: The OSPFv3 process and expected IPv6 adjacencies are established with unique router IDs. This other result does not test that condition directly.
