1 VPN Tunnel Management Configuration
About This Chapter
VPN tunnel management involves the creation, management, and maintenance of VPN tunnels.
1.1 Introduction to VPN Tunnels
This part briefly introduces VPN tunnels, including such commonly-used VPN tunnels as LSPs,
TE tunnels, and GRE tunnels, and the configuration and management of these VPN tunnels.
1.2 VPN Tunnel Features Supported by the S7700
The S7700 supports such VPN tunnel features as the select-sequence tunnel policy and tunnel
binding policy.
1.3 Configuring a Tunnel Interface
Tunnel interfaces are point-to-point virtual interfaces that are used for encapsulating packets.
Similar to loopback interfaces, tunnel interfaces are logical interfaces.
1.4 Configuring Tunnel Policies Applied to L3VPN
By default, the system selects an LSP and performs no load balancing. If load balancing or other
types of tunnels are required, you need to configure a select-sequence tunnel policy and apply
the tunnel policy.
1.5 Configuring Tunnel Policies Applied to L2VPN
By default, the system selects LSPs for a VPN and no load balancing is carried out. If load
balancing or other types of tunnels are required, you need to configure a tunnel policy and bind
the tunnel policy to the tunnels.
1.6 Configuring L3VPN Tunnel Binding
VPN tunnel binding refers to the binding between a TE tunnel and a VPN. After the binding,
the TE tunnel is exclusively used by the VPN.
1.7 Configuring L2VPN Tunnel Binding
L2VPN tunnel binding refers to the binding between a TE tunnel and a VPN. After the binding,
the TE tunnel is exclusively used by the VPN.
1.8 Maintaining a VPN Tunnel
Monitor the running status of the VPN tunnel.
