Refer to the exhibit. Two Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches fail to establish OSPF adjacency. Which configuration resolves the issue?
The correct answer is B. N9K2(config)# interface eth1/2. On N9K2 the IP on Eth1/2 was placed in a /25, which puts 172.18.1.200 in the 172.18.1.128/25 network, whereas N9K1's 172.18.1.1/24 lives in 172.18.1.0/24. Because they aren't in the same subnet they cannot form adjacency. Changing N9K2's mask to /24 (so both ends share…

Explanation
On N9K2 the IP on Eth1/2 was placed in a /25, which puts 172.18.1.200 in the 172.18.1.128/25 network, whereas N9K1's 172.18.1.1/24 lives in 172.18.1.0/24. Because they aren't in the same subnet they cannot form adjacency. Changing N9K2's mask to /24 (so both ends share 172.18.1.0/24) restores direct Layer 3 connectivity and allows OSPF to neighbor.
