Refer to the exhibit. A network engineer started to configure two directly-connected routers as shown. Which command sequence must the engineer configure on R2 so that the two routers become OSPF neig

The correct answer is A. interface GigabitEthernet0/1. To establish an OSPF neighbor adjacency between directly connected routers, the interface must be configured with an IP address and enabled for OSPF within a specific area.

Why each option

To establish an OSPF neighbor adjacency between directly connected routers, the interface must be configured with an IP address and enabled for OSPF within a specific area.

Ainterface GigabitEthernet0/1Correct

To enable OSPF on a router interface and form an adjacency with a directly connected neighbor, the engineer must first enter the specific interface configuration mode using `interface GigabitEthernet0/1`. Within this mode, an IP address must be assigned (if not already present), and OSPF needs to be enabled on the interface using a command like `ip ospf 1 area 0`.

Brouter ospf 1

The `router ospf 1` command enters the OSPF routing process configuration mode. While necessary for OSPF, it is typically followed by `network` commands or global OSPF parameters and does not directly configure the interface's IP address or enable OSPF on the interface itself, which might be a prerequisite.

Cinterface GigabitEthernet0/1

This option is a duplicate of option A.

Drouter ospf 1

This option is a duplicate of option B.
