A network administrator is designing a single-area OSPF network for a campus with multiple Dell PowerSwitch routers. All routers will be in area 0. Which statement about the role of the backbone area in this design is correct?

Routers in area 0 are classified as backbone routers, and they must have a direct connection to an area border router.

The backbone area is used only for inter-area routing, so it is not required in a single-area design.

All routers in area 0 are internal routers, and they must all have at least one interface in area 0.

The backbone area must be physically contiguous, so all routers must be directly connected to each other.

An administrator has configured OSPF on a Dell PowerSwitch, but the router is not forming adjacencies with any neighbors. The 'show ip ospf neighbor' command shows no neighbors. The administrator has verified that the OSPF process is running and that the interfaces are up. What is the most likely cause?

The router ID is set to 0.0.0.0.

The OSPF area is set to 1 on this router and 0 on the neighbor.

The network statement does not include the interface subnet.

The OSPF process ID is set to 1 on this router and 2 on the neighbor.
