Nope, It doesn't need to in the OSPF process. It just needs to be in an
"up" and "up" condition. OSPF picks the highest "active" interface to be
the router ID. If you configure a higher address later it won't change the
router ID however unless you restart OSPR neighbor negotiation, i.e. reload
or shut/no shut the interfaces. This isn't a big deal unless you've
configured virtual links with use router ID's as anchor points.
Take care,
