Explanations

Click on the arrows to vote for the correct answer

A. B. C. D.

Explanation

Here are the relevant parts of the router configs:

We are not sure about the configuration of ppp authentication in this case. Some reports said that only one router has the "ppp authentication chap" command but it is just a trick and is not the problem here. The real problem here is R6 uses the same router-id of R3 (192.168.3.3) so OSPF neighborship cannot be established. In real life, such configuration error will be shown in the command line interface (CLI). So please check carefully for this question.
