I have seen this with switches, as well as PoE injectors!  Don't tell me
how a POE injector could cause OSPF to not function correctly, but as
soon as it was replaced, it came up.

I will power cycle the switch tomorrow.  It is an industrial DIN-rail
mount that is not managed.

        That all makes sense, but I think I have eliminated most of it.
The
        link from device A to device B is the primary link for this part
of
        the network to the Internet.  It is carrying 2-way traffic just
fine.
        That would seem to indicate that all the hardware level stuff is
OK.
        I have looked at the interfaces, but I will do it again to be
sure I
        have not missed one, but since this plugs into a switch it
should just
        be the one port on the at fault unit and the switch.
         
        The other part of the mystery is that this was working fine and
then
        just quit.  As far as I know there were no changes to the
network near
        the time it quit finding neighbors.
            

 
The problem may be that the switch has failed to forward multicast
traffic from this port.  Normal traffic would flow correctly.  Have
you power cycled the switch?  Is it a managed switch?  Does it have
the ablility to permit or deny multicast traffic on a port by port
basis?
