Link Failed - Check Network Connection

Question
-
This past Monday, one of my sccm 2012 secondary site servers had to be taken offline because the building lost power for the day. Since then, the db link state (monitoring -> Database Replication) for that secondary site has showed failed, even though the site has been back online for over 24 hours.
When I run the replication link analyzer, I get this:
Connection failure detected between SCCM-CP1.hw.local and the SQL Server SCCM-PA2.hw.local\CONFIGMGRSEC. Check network and firewall settings between these computers.EDIT: I forgot to mention the obvious: the network connection between the two sites is up and in excellent condition
When I view the replication status for that link, everything is green on the parent site tab, and ? on the child site tab. The summary tab shows the following:
Site Replication Status
Parent Site: CP1
Parent Site State: Replication Active
Child Site: PA2
Child Site State: Replication Active
Global Data Replication Status
Parent Site to Child Site Global State: Link Failed
Parent Site to Child Site Global Synchronization Time: 5/7/2012 10:32 AM
Child Site to Parent Site Global State: Link Failed
Last Synchronization Time: 5/7/2012 9:10 AM
Global Data Initialization Percentage: 100%Site Data Replication Status
Child Site to Parent Site State: Not Applicable

A simple restart of both servers seems to have resolved the issue.
