D

When private partitions are created on a device where VRRP-A (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol-Advanced) is enabled, the following statement is true:

B. VRID 0 is configured with settings identical to VRID 0 on the shared partition.

Explanation: VRRP-A is a protocol that provides redundancy for IP networks by allowing multiple routers to share an IP address. When VRRP-A is enabled on a device with private partitions, VRIDs (VRRP Router Identifiers) can be configured on both the shared and private partitions.

VRID 0 is a reserved VRID and is used as the default VRID when no other VRID is specified. VRID 0 is always present on both the shared and private partitions of a device where VRRP-A is enabled.

When a private partition is created, VRID 0 is configured with settings identical to VRID 0 on the shared partition. This means that the configuration of VRID 0 is replicated on the private partition. Any changes made to VRID 0 on the shared partition will be automatically applied to the private partition.

Option A is incorrect because VRIDs are always present on both shared and private partitions, including VRID 0.

Option C is incorrect because not all VRIDs on the shared partition are replicated on the private partitions, only VRID 0 is replicated.

Option D is incorrect because VRID 0 is configured with settings identical to VRID 0 on the shared partition, not with its default settings.

Option E is incorrect because VRRP-A is available on private partitions, as VRIDs can be configured on both the shared and private partitions.
