wirless environment OSPF neigbor issue.
This is setup is simple point to point but the physical transport medium is wireless.
when i enable the ospf neighbor getting up but frequently the ospf neighbor up & down.
I've confirmed there is no link failure but the hello packets are not received and the dead timer expired. I'm not sure where the problem, but i assume the problem is some multicast supporting on the wireless bridge devices . But this can be fixed using uni-cast neighbor establishment.
change the interface network type to NBMA

change the interface network type to NBMA
#ip ospf network ?
broadcast Specify OSPF broadcast multi-access network
non-broadcast Specify OSPF NBMA network
point-to-multipoint Specify OSPF point-to-multipoint network
point-to-point Specify OSPF point-to-point network
and in the ospf process define the neighbor statically this makes the unicast hello which solve this problem. broadcast Specify OSPF broadcast multi-access network
non-broadcast Specify OSPF NBMA network
point-to-multipoint Specify OSPF point-to-multipoint network
point-to-point Specify OSPF point-to-point network
(config-router)#neighbor ?
A.B.C.D Neighbor address
