OpenVPN won’t do multicast over TUN, only TAP.

Following commands resulted in similar output on client and server with different IP-Addresses.

Where server is the name of my server. 

In logs I can see only  multiple <TRACE> myOSPF3: HELLO packet sent via tun0 - messages and once after start initial logs like adding area and originating lsa for routes from static-protocol. 



Now i'm trying to establish ptp-connection for ospf, but in future the server should run in ptmp mode. I suppose, that there is somethnig wrong with the IP-Address of peer, since the server has IP-Address 10.29.0.1 and the client 10.29.0.10. But I declared these IP-Adresses as neighbour in config file. Maybe there is an issue, that the IP-Addresses are in /32-network? But unfortunately I cannot change anything in openvpn settings. Do you have any idea, what I'm doing wrong?

Hi

What do you get from:

ip addr list
birdc show interfaces
birdc show ospf interface
birdc show ospf neighbors
tcpdump -v -s 0  proto ospf -i tun0


Do you have anything interesting in logs?
