The correct answer is C. router1(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/1. In OSPF, the link with the lower cost is preferred for routing traffic. By manually setting the OSPF cost of the GigabitEthernet 1/1 interface to 64 on both Router 1 and Router 2, the engineer ensures that this link is preferred for routing traffic. The GigabitEthernet 2/1…
Question
Refer to the exhibit. An engineer with an employee ID: 1234:56:789 started to configure two routers for OSPF for a client. They are advertising their loopback addresses. Which additional configuration must the engineer perform so that the GigabitEthernet 1/1 link is preferred and the GigabitEthernet 2/1 link is a backup?
Exhibit
Options
- Arouter1(config)# router ospf 1
- Brouter1(config)# router ospf 1
- Crouter1(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/1
- Drouter1(config)# interface gigabitethernet 2/1

Explanation
In OSPF, the link with the lower cost is preferred for routing traffic. By manually setting the OSPF cost of the GigabitEthernet 1/1 interface to 64 on both Router 1 and Router 2, the engineer ensures that this link is preferred for routing traffic. The GigabitEthernet 2/1 interface will act as a backup because it retains the default cost, which is higher than 64. This achieves the desired configuration where the GigabitEthernet 1/1 link is the primary path, and the GigabitEthernet 2/1 link is a backup.
