Hi,
I can't recall seeing your config's posted.

I also can't see any reference to the command "no peer neighbour-route"
(possibly wrong syntax) in any posts. When your link comes up a /32 route
is generated, causing an LSA change, when it goes back down the /32
disappears - causing another lsa change, therefore the link comes up again,
you can guess the rest!
