The routers are not in Point to Point Network. If U see the n/w address on
both the interfaces viz 216.12.210/24 they are in the same subnet. So a P 2
P n/w is ruled out. Also the Interface type on both the interfaces is
BROADCAST.

Router r2 has seen neighbor r5 but surprisingly hasnt moved it to the BDR
state.r5 doesnt see r2 because its neighbor count is zero

Fabricio what I suggest is that U cud change the Priority on one of the
routers or power them on after a time interval.

I beleive that there is an access list that is preventing Hello packets in
the Ethernet Interface of r5 which is why it is not seeing r2.

Please send the complete configs of both the routers

Thanks and Regards

Jimmy

I think on a point-to-point network, you won't have a DR or a BDR.

thanks,
