Hi,

Cause p-t-mp subint's default ospf network type is non-broadcast (you can use sh ip ospf int to verify it), so you need use network statement to indicate the net type is p-t-mp. Although you can make them in full status when one side is p-t-mp and another side is non-broadcast, the routing table is wrong. Wish it could be helpful.
