Configuring GRE Tunneling

Table 76: GRE Tunnel Parameters (continued)

 

 

 

 

Field

Description

 

 

 

 

Remote IP

The IP address of the remote endpoint of the tunnel.

 

 

Note:

 

 

The local IP and remote IP must be different.

 

 

 

 

DSCP

The offset to the DSCP value in the encapsulation header, which is

 

 

used to show the difference between encapsulated traffic and regular

 

 

traffic on a physical interface. Possible values are:

 

 

No Change

 

 

An integer between 0 - 63

 

 

 

 

Interface MTU

The current Maximum Transmission Unit for the physical interface

 

 

through which tunnel packets are sent.

 

 

Note:

 

 

This field is read-only.

 

 

 

 

Path MTU

When checked, the device actively polls the next hop device for MTU

 

Discovery

value.

 

 

 

 

Tunnel MTU

The Maximum Transmission Unit for the tunnel.

 

 

Note:

 

 

This field is read-only.

 

 

Note:

 

 

This field is only active when Path MTU Discovery is

 

 

active.

 

 

 

 

Hop Limit

Maximum number of intervening devices between two endpoints of an

 

 

IP tunnel.

 

 

 

 

Verify Checksum

When checked, the Avaya G250/G350/G450 verifies the checksum

 

 

value in IP headers of packets traveling over the tunnel.

 

 

 

 

Key Mode

When checked, a shared key is used for envcrypting traffic over an IP

 

 

tunnel.

 

 

 

 

Key

The shared key for encrypting traffic over an IP tunnel.

 

 

 

 

Aging Timer

The number of minutes Path MTU Discovery is aged. Default: 10. A

 

 

value of 0 indicates Aging Timer is disabled.

 

 

Note:

 

 

Aging Timer can only be changed if Path MTU

 

 

Discovery is set.
