Pre-configuration Tasks
Before configuring a GRE tunnel, complete the following tasks:
l Configuring the parameters of the link layer protocol for the source and destination
interfaces
l Configuring the network layer protocol ensure that IP routes between the source and
destination interfaces are reachable
