Usage
Information
Enabling tunnel keepalive causes ICMP echo packets to be sent to the keepalive target. The ICMP
echo will be sourced from the tunnel interface logical IPv4 or IPv6 address and will be tunnel
encapsulated. The response will be accepted whether it returns tunnel encapsulated or not.
When configuring tunnel keepalive at both end points of a tunnel interface it is recommended to set the
tunnel keepalive target to the logical IPv4 or IPv6 address of the far end tunnel peer, rather than to
the tunnel destination. This reduces the chance of both ends of the tunnel staying in keepalive down
state. If both ends get into a keepalive down state that does not clear in a few seconds, then performing
shutdown - no shutdown sequence on one end should bring both ends back to up.
tunnel-mode
Enable a tunnel interface.

Syntax
tunnel mode {ipip | ipv6 | ipv6ip}[decapsulate-any]
To disable an active tunnel interface, use the no tunnel mode command.
Parameters

inside an IPv4 tunnel.
ipv6 Enable tunnel in RFC 2473 mode and encapsulate IPv4 and/or IPv6 datagrams
inside an IPv6 tunnel.
ipv6ip Enable tunnel in RFC 4213 mode and encapsulate IPv6 datagrams inside an IPv4
