Description

Created a static route to the ospf neighbor:

somefirewall-vtysh# show ip route 172.25.17.0/24
Routing entry for 172.25.17.0/24
  Known via "kernel", distance 0, metric 0, best
  Last update 00:00:58 ago
  * 172.25.16.4, via ix0.1001

Added that interface to the neighbor's OSPF process:

somefirewall-vtysh# show ip route 172.25.17.0/24
Routing entry for 172.25.17.0/24
  Known via "ospf", distance 110, metric 20
  Last update 00:00:22 ago
    172.25.16.4, via ix0.1001, weight 1

Routing entry for 172.25.17.0/24
  Known via "kernel", distance 0, metric 0, best
  Last update 00:02:50 ago
  * 172.25.16.4, via ix0.1001

pfSense routing table:

[25.07.1-RELEASE][root@somefirewall]/root: netstat -rnfinet
Internet:
Destination        Gateway            Flags         Netif Expire
[snip]
172.25.17.0/24     172.25.16.4        UGS        ix0.1001

That's the static route...

Deleted static route from pfSense.

Routing table loses route:

[25.07.1-RELEASE][root@somefirewall]/root: netstat -rnfinet
Internet:
Destination        Gateway            Flags         Netif Expire
[snip]
172.25.16.0/29     link#30            U          ix0.1001
172.25.16.5        link#10            UHS             lo0
172.25.64.0/24     link#32            U            ovpns2
172.25.64.1        link#10            UHS             lo0

FRR still thinks the static route exists so it will not install the ospf route due to administrative distance:

somefirewall# show ip route 172.25.17.0/24
Routing entry for 172.25.17.0/24
  Known via "ospf", distance 110, metric 20
  Last update 00:03:47 ago
    172.25.16.4, via ix0.1001, weight 1

Routing entry for 172.25.17.0/24
  Known via "kernel", distance 0, metric 0, best <--
  Last update 00:06:15 ago
  * 172.25.16.4, via ix0.1001

Should the static/kernel route drop from FRR so it knows to insert the OSPF route into the FIB? Yes. Does it? No.
