[Switch D] router id 4.4.4.4

On Switch A, execute the
display ospf peer
command to display the OSPF peers.
Note that Switch A has three peers.
The state of each peer is full, which means that adjacency is set up between Switch A
and each peer. (Switch A and Switch C should set up adjacencies with all the routers on
the network for them to be DR and BDR on the network respectively.) Switch A is DR,
while Switch C is BDR on the network. And all the other neighbors are DR others
(which means that they are neither DRs nor BDRs).
