Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view.

2. Create a GRE tunnel
interface, and specify the
tunnel mode as GRE/IPv6.
interface tunnel
interface-number
mode
gre ipv6
By default, no tunnel interfaces
exist.
You must configure the same
tunnel mode on both ends of a
tunnel. Otherwise, packet delivery
might fail.
3. Configure an IPv4 or IPv6
address for the tunnel
interface.
For information about how to
assign an IPv4 address to an
interface, see "Configuring IP
addressing."
For information about how to
assign an IPv6 address to an
interface, see "Configuring basic
IPv6 settings."
By default, no IPv4 or IPv6
address is configured for a tunnel
interface.
When the passenger protocol is
IPv4, configure an IPv4 address
for the tunnel interface. When the
passenger protocol is IPv6,
configure an IPv6 address for the
tunnel interface.
4. Configure a source IPv6
address or source interface
for the tunnel interface.
source
{ ipv6-address |
interface-type interface-number }
By default, no source IPv6
address or interface is configured
for a tunnel interface.
If you configure a source IPv6
address for a tunnel interface, the
tunnel interface uses the source
IPv6 address as the source IPv6
address of the encapsulated
packets.
If you configure a source interface
for a tunnel interface, the tunnel
interface uses the IPv6 address of
the source interface as the source
IPv6 address of the encapsulated
packets.
5. Configure a destination IPv6
address for the tunnel
interface.
destination
ipv6-address
By default, no destination IPv6
address is configured for a tunnel
interface.
The destination IPv6 address is
the IPv6 address of the physical
interface that the tunnel remote
end uses to receive packets from
the GRE tunnel.
The tunnel local end uses this
address as the destination IPv6
address of the encapsulated
packets.
6. (Optional.) Enable GRE
checksum.
gre checksum
By default, GRE checksum is
disabled.
7. (Optional.) Configure a GRE
key for the tunnel interface.
gre key
key
By default, no GRE key is
configured for a GRE tunnel
interface.
The two ends of a GRE tunnel
must have the same key or both
have no key.
8. Return to system view.
