R211x-HP Flexfabric 11900 Layer 3 - IP Services Configuration Guide

201
• If the destination IPv4 network is not on the same subnet as the IPv4 address of the local tunnel
interface, you must configure a route destined for the destination IPv4 network through the tunnel
interface. You can configure a static route, and specify the local tunnel interface as the egress
interface or specify the IPv4 address of the peer tunnel interface as the next hop. Alternatively, you
can enable a dynamic routing protocol on both tunnel interfaces to achieve the same purpose. For
the detailed configuration, see Layer 3—IP Routing Configuration Guide.
• The destination address of the route passing the tunnel interface must not be on the same subnet as
the destination address configured on the tunnel interface.
To configure an IPv4 over IPv4 tunnel:
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Enter IPv4 over IPv4 tunnel
interface view.
interface tunnel number [ mode
ipv4-ipv4 ]
N/A
3. Configure an IPv4 address for
the tunnel interface.
ip address ip-address { mask |
mask-length } [ sub ]
By default, no IPv4 address is
configured for the tunnel interface.
4. Configure a source address or
source interface for the tunnel
interface.
source { ip-address |
interface-type interface-number }
By default, no source address or
source interface is configured for the
tunnel interface.
The specified source address or the
IPv6 address of the specified source
interface is used as the source IP
address of tunneled packets.
5. Configure a destination
address for the tunnel
interface.
destination ip-address
By default, no destination address is
configured for the tunnel interface.
The tunnel destination address must
be the IP address of the receiving
interface on the tunnel peer. It is used
as the destination IP address of
tunneled packets.
6. (Optional.) Set the DF bit for
tunneled packets.
tunnel dfbit enable
The DF bit is not set for tunneled
packets by default.
Configuration example
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 82, the two subnets Group 1 and Group 2 use private IPv4 addresses. Configure an
IPv4 over IPv4 tunnel between Switch A and Switch B to make the two subnets reachable to each other.
