[Eygene Ryabinkin]

Josef, good day.

Currently I can not answer your question, sorry.  I just have the
remark.

'Cost' column looks perfectly correct: in order to reach the other
router, the path with cost 20 is selected (presumably, WAN X); path
to 10.30.1.2/32 costs 20+20: 20 from WAN X interface and 20 from
the gre30 on the other end; and path to 10.31 costs 70=20+50,
WAN X + gre31 on the other end.

The only weird thing is the nexthop value.  Your 'netstat -rn' shows
routes via gre31 too?  If yes, maybe the verbose mode of the openospfd
(-v) will show something interesting?
