I bet the OSPF peer is using 'password1' as their key value. Classic networking move right there.

D? Clear-text authentication? That's like putting your password on a billboard. I'll pass on that one, thanks.

Wait, what? C? Stub routers? That's completely irrelevant to the authentication question. Someone needs to go back to OSPF 101.

Hmm, that's an interesting point. I can see why that could be the correct answer.

I'm pretty sure the answer is B. The key ID can be different, as long as the key value is the same. Otherwise, the OSPF peers wouldn't be able to authenticate each other.

Yes, that's right. As long as the key value is the same, the OSPF peers can establish communication.

I disagree, I believe the answer is B) The interface on the OSPF peer may have a different key ID, but it must use the same key value as the configured interface.
