Cannot connect two ospf-instances over tun-interface

[dawid k]

Here my configuration (client):

ifconfig tun0:
tun0      Link encap:UNSPEC  HWaddr
00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00
          inet addr:10.29.0.10  P-t-P:10.29.0.9  Mask:255.255.255.255

bird_ospf.conf (included in bird.conf) :

protocol ospf myOSPF {
        area 0.0.0.0 {
                interface "tun0" {
                        cost 10;
                        type ptp;
                        stub no; hello 10; transmit delay 5; wait 10; dead
40;
                        neighbors {
                                10.29.0.1;
                        }; }; };

tcpdump -v -XX  proto ospf -i tun0 (confirmation, that hello messages are
sent and received) :


12:59:03.143238 IP (tos 0xc0, ttl 1, id 15765, offset 0, flags [none],
proto OSPF (89), length 64)
 10.29.0.01 > 224.0.0.5: OSPFv2, Hello, length 44
...
12:59:09.157965 IP (tos 0xc0, ttl 1, id 59599, offset 0, flags [none],
proto OSPF (89), length 64)
    10.29.0.10 > 224.0.0.5: OSPFv2, Hello, length 44


The server is using similar configuration. It differs only by IP(10.29.0.1)
and router-ID.
