Issue with OSPF over a second link v7

Wed Aug 17, 2022 10:27 pm

I have a CCR2116-12G-4S+ running 7.4.1 and cannot establish a second link to another Mikrotik router running v6. The primary link is of network type ptp and is running fine reporting a state of Full. The second link (different interfaces over a different path) will only go into link state ExStart.

From the log of the v7 router
instance { version: 2 vrf: 0 router-id: x.x.x.216 } area { 2.2.2.2 } interface { instance-id: 1 p2p ether11 y.y.y.185 } created
instance { version: 2 vrf: 0 router-id: x.x.x.216 } area { 2.2.2.2 } interface { instance-id: 1 p2p ether11 y.y.y.185 } state change to Point-to-Point
instance { version: 2 vrf: 0 router-id: x.x.x.216 } area { 2.2.2.2 } interface { instance-id: 1 p2p ether11 y.y.y.185 } neighbor { router-id: x.x.x.119 state: Down } state change to Init
instance { version: 2 vrf: 0 router-id: x.x.x.216 } area { 2.2.2.2 } interface { instance-id: 1 p2p ether11 y.y.y.185 } neighbor { router-id: x.x.x.119 state: Init } state change to ExStart
I have done this multiple times with v6 to v6 connections with never an issue. Is this a bug or is there something I should be doing differently to establish the second link? This is my first router running v7 and it seems to operate differently.

Found the issue. Rookie mistake.
The microwave radio link was limiting mtu. I increased the mtu on the radio link and the OSPF came up.
