    Configure GRE Tunnel: Basic Requirement For GRE Configuration

    Uploaded by

    ganesh
    Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunnels are used to encapsulate IP packets and transmit them through an IP network. The document provides instructions for configuring a GRE tunnel between two routers to connect their loopback interfaces. The configuration includes setting the tunnel source and destination addresses on both routers, enabling GRE tunnel mode, and verifying connectivity with commands like traceroute, ping, and show interfaces. Static routes are also configured on each router to point to the tunnel interface.

    Configure GRE tunnel

    Basic Information: Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunneling is used to take another
    protocol payload, such as IPv4, IPv6, IPX, etc., and tunnel it over an IPv4 or IPv6 transit
    network, by using IP protocol number 47. In this case, GRE is used to tunnel IPv4 packets between
    the Loopback0 networks o. Because the GRE tunnel is configured as point-to-point, static routes can
    be configured to point out the Tunnel directly, and a next-hop address is not required. We can verify
    that traffic between these networks is going out the tunnel because the traceroute output shows
    only one hop between the networks, which is the GRE tunnel.

    Basic requirement for GRE configuration.


    Confirm the IP address reachability from source to destination on which you are required to
    configure the GRE Tunnel.

    #ping source IP address destination IP address.


    !!!!!
    If the ip address is reachable we can configure the tunnel on it.

    Configuration of GRE tunnel between Two devices

    1) Configure the Tunnel related configuration on first device interface.


    Mention the source and destination of tunnels generally we are using the Loopback IP address of
    the devices on which we need to configure tunnel.

    Router#conf t
    Router(config)#int Tunnel 113
    Router(config-if)#ip add 155.1.13.1
    Router(config-if)#tunnel source 155.1.13.1
    Router(config-if)#tunnel destinaition 155.1.13.3
    Router(config-if)#tunnel mode gre
    Router(config-if)#exit
    Router(config)#ip route 150.1.3.3 255.255.255.255 Tunnel113

    2) Configure the Tunnel related configuration on second device interface.

    Router#conf t
    Router(config)#int Tunnel 113
    Router(config-if)#ip add 155.13.0.3 255.255.255.0
    Router(config-if)#tunnel source 155.1.13.3
    Router(config-if)#tunnel destinaition 155.1.13.1
    Router(config-if)#tunnel mode gre
    Router(config-if)#exit
    Router(config)#ip route 150.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 Tunnel113

    Verification
    R1#show ip route 150.1.3.3
    Routing entry for 150.1.3.3/32
    Known via "static", distance 1, metric 0 (connected)
    Routing Descriptor Blocks:
