OSPF Exchanged Routes marked as invalid when run through a GRE PTMP/PTP OSPF between peers
Needs reporter action, HighPublic
Actions

Description

Troubleshooting a routing exchange with a 3rd party has caused us to discover a difference in function between 1.1.8 and 1.2.3.

Two VyOS routers, exchanging OSPF routes through a GRE tunnel or as a direct ethernet link will mark received route as "invalid" and never insert it into the kernel routing table. This appears because it sees the far end of the GRE tunnel IP address as being non-reachable, despite it being ICMP reachable, and a STATIC route working correctly. This occurs when one Vyos router is in Point to Multipoint OSPF mode, and one end is in Point to Point mode.

This configuration worked on 1.1.8, and still is in production for us.

So testing done so far:

Vyos 1.1.8 PTMP -> VyOS 1.1.8 PTP - Works
Vyos 1.2.3 PTMP -> VyOS 1.2.3 PTP - INVALID
Vyos 1.1.8 PTMP -> Cisco IOS 15.4 - Works
Vyos 1.1.8 PTMP -> Brocade Vyatta Appliance - Works
Vyos 1.2.3 PTMP -> Brocade Vyatta Appliance - INVALID
Vyos 1.2.3 PTMP -> Cisco IOS 15.4 - INVALID

@SquirePug Can you check 1.2.7 release?

VyOS 1.2.7 PTMP => VyOS 1.2.7 PTP - Works
VyOS 1.2.7 PTMP => cisco PTP - Works
VyOS 1.2.7 PTMP => 1.1.8 - not works

tun3 - vyos-1.2.7
tun4 - cisco
