In order to use the tunneling feature it is necessary to provision the following using the
Lucent OMS or the ITM-CIT:
• map a “tunnel far-end” to each (masked) IP-destination, where all IP-addresses are
implied that fulfil the most significant bits (non-masked) part of the IP-destination.
Only the far-end of a tunnel needs to be identified through its NSAP address (the
near-end is implicitly this NE). Resources for a maximum of 50 tunnels must be
provided.
• provision its own IP-address in the NE.
• enable IP routing.
• add routing information for forwarding towards an external IP router, when the
IP-destination is not connected to the Q-LAN of the NE.
• enable (when desired) automatic creation of tunnels, towards all other NEs in this
area that have automatic creation enabled. Note that manual provisioning is needed
for a tunnel that spans a number of areas, while subsequent tunneling within the
destination area can make use of automatically created tunnels.
