And two minor notes:

1) Use 'interface "*"' in protocol direct.

2) You probably don't want 'export all' to protocol ospf.
That would lead to export routes from direct protocol to ospf protocol,
whis is not what you want (protocol ospf generates routes for connected
devices itself so these exported routes would be duplicates
and would fill OSPF domain with unnecessary external LSAs).

If you don't want to export static (or RIP or BGP) routes,
just use 'export none' in protocol ospf.
