Description

FRR will not redistribute the exact route to a local OpenVPN network as either;
  • A sub network selecting the OpenVPN interface under "Services > FRR > OSPF > OSPF Interfaces"
  • A Zebra/FRR global static router under "Services > FRR > Global Settings"

The only way to redistribute the local OpenVPN network is redistribute the Kernel routing table (messy and needs lot of route pruning)
or
Redistribute a supernet as a static route (not alway possible perhaps due to adjacent networks and not ideal)

This isn't a bug we can fix, it's how FRR behaves on point-to-point links. The other attempts you made to get a route in there aren't correct, either, but I'll respond on the thread with why.
