OSPF Adjacency stuck in EXCHANGE/EX-START states

Hello!

 

I am facing a problem with an OSPF link between an ASR and a 6509. It has been working fine for months and all of a suden the process went down, and is stuck in EXCHANGE/EXSTART states . I have another OSPF link (for redundancy purpose) between these two devices that is still working fine.

 

Interface on the ASR:

interface GigabitEthernet0/0/2
 description -- 6509 Gi3/1
 ip address xxx.xxx.247.243 255.255.255.254
 no ip redirects
 no ip unreachables
 no ip proxy-arp
 ip nat outside
 ip portbundle outside
 ip ospf authentication message-digest
 ip ospf message-digest-key 1 md5 7 0607032E444F071C11
 ip ospf network point-to-point
 load-interval 30
 negotiation auto
end

Interface on the 6509:

interface GigabitEthernet3/1
 description -- ASR1002 Gi0/0/2
 ip address xxx.xxx.247.242 255.255.255.254
 no ip redirects
 no ip unreachables
 no ip proxy-arp
 ip ospf authentication message-digest
 ip ospf message-digest-key 1 md5 7 0607032E444F071C11
 ip ospf network point-to-point
 ip ospf priority 128
end

I can ping between the two without pb (with different MTU size and df-bit set)

 

From the debug log it seems that the ASR receive the DBD from the 6509 and send it back but the 6509 doesn't, and it keeps on re-sending.

 

ASR log:

Dec 29 12:07:17.840: OSPF-65535 ADJ   Gi0/0/2: Rcv DBD from xxx.xxx.247.255 seq 0x159E opt 0x50 flag 0x7 len 32  mtu 1500 state EXCHANGE

Any suggestion or pointer of things I should check is more than welcome.

 

Best!
