Conguring Tunnel allow-remote Decapsulation
You can congure an IPv4 or IPV6 address or prex whose tunneled packet will be accepted for decapsulation.
If no allow-remote entries are congured, then tunneled packets from any remote peer address will be accepted.
Upto eight allow-remote entries can be congured on any particular multipoint receive-only tunnel.
The following sample conguration shows how to congure a tunnel allow-remote address.
Dell(conf)#interface tunnel 1
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#ipv6 address 1abd::1/64
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#ip address 1.1.1.1/24
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#tunnel source 40.1.1.1
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#tunnel mode ipip decapsulate-any
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#
tunnel allow-remote 40.1.1.2
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#no shutdown
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#show config
!
interface Tunnel 1
ip address 1.1.1.1/24
ipv6 address 1abd::1/64
tunnel source 40.1.1.1
tunnel allow-remote 40.1.1.2
tunnel mode ipip decapsulate-any
no shutdown
Conguring Tunnel source anylocal Decapsulation
The tunnel source anylocal command allows a multipoint receive-only tunnel to decapsulate tunnel packets addressed to any
IPv4 or IPv6 (depending on the tunnel mode) address congured on the switch that is operationally UP.
The source anylocal parameters can be used for packet decapsulation instead of the ip address or interface (tunnel allow-
remote command), but only on multipoint receive-only mode tunnels.
The following sample conguration shows how to use the tunnel source anylocal command.
Dell(conf)#interface tunnel 1
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#ipv6 address 1abd::1/64
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#ip address 1.1.1.1/24
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#tunnel source anylocal
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#tunnel mode ipip decapsulate-any
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#tunnel allow-remote 40.1.1.2
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#no shutdown
Dell(conf-if-tu-1)#show config
!
interface Tunnel 1
ip address 1.1.1.1/24
ipv6 address 1abd::1/64
tunnel source anylocal
tunnel allow-remote 40.1.1.2
tunnel mode ipip decapsulate-any
no shutdown
Multipoint Receive-Only Tunnels
A multipoint receive-only IP tunnel decapsulates packets from remote end-points and never forwards packets on the tunnel. You can
congure an additional level of security on a receive-only IP tunnel by specifying a valid prex or range of remote peers.
The operational status of a multipoint receive-only tunnel interface always remains up. Packets from the remote addresses congured for a
multipoint receive-only tunnel are decapsulated and are not marked for neighbor resolution as for a standard tunnel’s destination address.
Connected routes for the tunnel interface’s IP subnet do not point towards the tunnel but towards the switch CPU for the receive-only
tunnel. The tunnel interface can function as an unnumbered interface with no IPv4/IPv6 address assigned.
