Usage Guidelines
You can configure a GRE tunnel between a Dell controller and another GRE-capable device. Layer-3 GRE tunnel
type is the default (tunnel mode gre ip). You can direct traffic into the tunnel using a static route (specify the
tunnel as the next hop for a static route) or a session-based access control list (ACL).
Example
The following command configures a tunnel interface for IPv4:
(host) (config) #interface tunnel 200
ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
tunnel source loopback
tunnel destination 20.1.1.242
tunnel mode gre ip
The following command configures a tunnel interface for IPv6:
(host) (config) # interface tunnel 15
description "Tunnel Interface"
tunnel mode gre ipv6
ipv6 address 2100:15::15
tunnel source ipv6 vlan 498
tunnel destination ipv6 2010:498::2
