It will take the loopback address as it's ID, even if it is not the highest
IP address on the router. Loopbacks take precedence over higher IP's with
respect to Router ID's for OSPF. You will have to reboot your router for
this change to be reflected. Once an ID is chosen, it will keep that ID
regardless of changes until the router is rebooted.

No, It's the highest Ip on the router.

Subject: OSPF Router ID/Loopback interface
Date: Wed, 18 Oct 2000 11:15:27 -0700
If I add a loopback interface to a router, when will the router take it as
the router ID? Here's a scenario:
Serial2/1 is the current router ID: 209.1.1.1
I add Loopback0, which is 10.0.0.1
Shouldn't the router take this as its router ID? When does this happen?
Doing:
clear ip ospf process
Still shows the old router ID. Is there any way to force the router to take
the ID from the loopback interface? On another router, I couldn't get it to
change until after reload.
