command. By default, the interface is shutdown when the portmode hybrid and switchport
are enabled.
The tunnel interface operates as an ECMP (equal cost multi path) only when the next hop to the tunnel
destination is over a physical interface. If you select any other interface as the next hop to the tunnel destination,
the tunnel interface does not operate as an ECMP.
