I’ve also tried with pointtopoint and declared my neighors under the tap interface and made it pointtopoint without success;

   interface "tap*" {

                        type pointopoint;

                        cost 5;

                        hello 5;

                        wait 10;

                        dead 25;

                        authentication cryptographic; password “boogers";

                        neighbors {

                        10.10.10.34;

                        };

                };

Hello all,

I am trying to establish OSPF over OpenVPN without any luck. The client side always turns up with no neighbours. I’ve tried pointtopoint and exclusively listing my neighbours all with no luck.

I originally was using the tun interface and switched to tap hoping that would help, but still nothing.

Below are my configurations, does anyone see anything obvious that I am missing?

Thanks so much for your time and thoughts!
