In testing the active-passive of XG firewall(18.03(457)), when the primary fails over, OSPF routes are lost and never return until the OSPF process is restarted.
Network normal as follows, pair of XG firewalls, PortA(outside area 0.0.0.1), PortB(inside area 0.0.0.0), PortC(sync). Area 1 has external routers running BGP and OSPF as an ASBR. BGP routes are injected as E2 into area 1. Carried through the XG firewalls running as OSPF ABRs and the routes are seen on the inside core network.
During failover, routes from primary disappear(as expected). Once the secondary figures it out, takes over, starts OSPF(hello and dead at 1 and 4 to speed up convergence), routes show up again in both area 0 and 1 with the exception of the E2 routes from the ASBR in area 1. They never return until manually restarting the OSPF process or failing back to the primary.
