NimbostratusOSPFv2 Neighbour not forming
Hi,
I'm working on the basis that I'm doing something stupid but here we go :)...
Lab environment, VMWare Workstation, 14.1.2 LTM VE <-> VyOs Router, LTM vLAN EXT_1, SelfIP 100.100.100.100/24, VyOS IP 100.100.100.1/24.
LTM can ping VyOS:

VyOS can also ping LTM.
OSPF enabled on VyOS Router, show ip ospf on VyOS shows neighbour with F5 stuck in INIT, which indicates VyOS is receiving HELLOs from F5.
OSPF enabled on F5, show ip ospf neighbour shows nothing, and show ip ospf interfact EXT_1 indicates no HELLO packets received:

port-lockdown on EXT_1 is set to permit default (have tried permit all - no difference).
NB: I thought there may be an issue in VM Workstation with multicast but I set up a 2nd VyOS router on the same vLAN - This forms a FULL OSPF peering with the original VyOS device, and again INIT with the F5. Have also confirmed MTUs on F5 and VyOS etc. all match.
The issue is the routing process on the F5 is not receiving the OSPF HELLO's fom the VyOS (as observed from show ip ospf interface output) but tcpdump shows the OSPF HELLO packets are received at the network level.
Any thoughts? Many Thanks!
