2. On router with IP address 10.1.0.1, add an EoIP interface and set its MAC address::
/interface eoip add remote-address=10.5.8.1 tunnel-id=1 mac-address=00-00-5E-80-00-02 \
\... disabled=no
Now you can add IP addresses to the created EoIP interfaces from the same subnet.

Description
An EoIP interface should be configured on two routers that have the possibility for an IP level
connection. The EoIP tunnel may run over an IPIP tunnel, a PPTP 128bit encrypted tunnel, a
PPPoE connection, or any connection that transports IP.
Specific Properties:
• Each EoIP tunnel interface can connect with one remote router which has a corresponding
interface configured with the same 'Tunnel ID'.
• The EoIP interface appears as an Ethernet interface under the interface list.
• This interface supports all features of an Ethernet interface. IP addresses and other tunnels may
be run over the interface.
• The EoIP protocol encapsulates Ethernet frames in GRE (IP protocol number 47) packets (just
like PPTP) and sends them to the remote side of the EoIP tunnel.
• Maximal count of EoIP tunnels is 65536.
Notes
WDS significantly faster than EoIP (up to 10-20% on RouterBOARD 500 systems), so it is
recommended to use WDS whenever possible.
