I just added another 2 nodes to the mesh and they are having random issues with LISTEN and no MFP
So I have a total of 6 nodes online now. With 4 ESTAB and the rest LISTEN and no MFP The funny thing is if I reboot all 6 routers they will randomly ESTAB and LISTEN. Not like there is something to point at. I still get the same messages as below. Is there a way to identify what level of AUTHSAE is failing that I can try?
