Hello,
I faced this problem and I want to ask what can be the problem, I faced this problem before but reboot can solve the problem but now reboot cant solve the problem. what can cause this error ?

Can you post your configuration?

thanks for anwer
here is ospf config;

/routing ospf area
add area-id=0.0.0.1 default-cost=1 inject-summary-lsas=no name=area1 type=stub
/routing ospf instance
set [ find default=yes ] router-id=172.17.36.172
/routing ospf interface

What are your MTU settings for Layer 2 and Layer 3 on each side of the link OSPF is trying to form a neighbor on? Normally getting stuck in two way indicates MTU, have also seen it occur as the result of a network type mismatch.

What is the config for the other router?

Here is a presentation I did on OSPF troubleshooting that may be helpful as well

Also check the remote side priority, since network statement is broadcast, I bet you are having a DR issue. You can post the remote side configuration here so we can all take a look. If the priority is set to a non-default value, try setting it to the default. Also, how many OSPF speakers are on this segment?

Hello,
all mtu’s default 1500 on layer2 and layer3, I do not touch mtu settings, and netwwork type broadcast.


do you need full config of the router ?

I read this presentations before, and its really good presentations thanks for share.

hello TheCiscoGuy,

thanks for your help, priority are default 1 at all, there are 83 ospf speakers on this segment. P 2 P links Ap works bridge and station side is station wds, may links create problem.

here are remote side config;

/routing ospf area
add area-id=0.0.0.1 default-cost=1 inject-summary-lsas=no name=area1 type=stub

Can you show the same information on 172.17.36.21, I want to see if there is a network type mismatch on that segment

This exactly matches a client issue I had a while ago. Is this a UBNT link? Try changing the OSPF network type on both sides to point-to-point. Please note, this will drop the adjacency so if you do not have redundancy to connect to the far side without this link, do the remote side first.

If this is a UBNT link, and the issue persists after changing the network type to point-to-point, try changing the network type again to nbma and specify the neighbors.

For reference:

its an older thread but I hope this helps

Thanks TheCiscoGuy,
I read the post that you sent me to have an idea, I almost remove all ubnt links and change them with mikrotik one. but I will try same steps to test.
thank you very much…
