Refer to the exhibit. A network engineer connected two routers using OSPF but the routers are not sharing routes. Which command completes the configuration?

The correct answer is D. router ospf 1. The routers are not sharing routes, suggesting the OSPF routing process might not be active or correctly configured.

Why each option

The routers are not sharing routes, suggesting the OSPF routing process might not be active or correctly configured.

Arouter ospf 1

This is identical to the correct answer.

Binterface GigabitEthernet5

`interface GigabitEthernet5` is a command to enter interface configuration mode, which is a precursor to configuring OSPF on an interface (e.g., with `ip ospf area`) but does not, by itself, enable the OSPF routing process or allow route sharing.

Crouter ospf 1

This is identical to the correct answer.

Drouter ospf 1Correct

The command `router ospf 1` is used to enable and start the OSPF routing process on a router. If the OSPF process is not initiated, or if the process ID is mismatched, routers will not be able to form adjacencies or exchange routing information, leading to a failure in sharing routes despite being physically connected.

Concept tested: OSPF process initiation
