(Required.) Configuring a tunnel interface
Perform one of the following tasks:
• Configuring an IPv6 over IPv4 tunnel:
{ Configuring an IPv6 over IPv4 manual tunnel
{ Configuring an automatic IPv4-compatible IPv6 tunnel
{ Configuring a 6to4 tunnel
{ Configuring an ISATAP tunnel
• Configuring an IPv4 over IPv4 tunnel
• Configuring an IPv4 over IPv6 tunnel:
{ Configuring an IPv4 over IPv6 manual tunnel
{ Configuring a DS-Lite tunnel
{ Configuring an IPv6 over IPv6 tunnel
Configuring a tunnel interface
Configure a Layer 3 virtual tunnel interface on each device on a tunnel so that devices at both ends can
send, identify, and process packets from the tunnel.
When an active/standby switchover occurs or the standby card is removed on an MSR4000 router, the
tunnel interfaces configured still exist. To delete a tunnel interface, use the undo interface tunnel
command.
To configure a tunnel interface:
Ste
p
Command
Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2. Create a tunnel interface,
specify the tunnel mode, and
enter tunnel interface view.
interface tunnel number mode
{ ds-lite-aftr | gre [ ipv6 ] |
ipv4-ipv4 | ipv6 | ipv6-ipv4
[ 6to4 | auto-tunnel | isatap ] |
mpls-te }
By default, no tunnel interface is
created.
When you create a new tunnel
interface, you must specify the tunnel
mode. When you enter the view of an
existing tunnel interface, you do not
need to specify the tunnel mode.
The two ends of a tunnel must use the
same tunnel mode. Otherwise,
packet tunneling will fail.
3. (Optional.) Configure a
description for the interface.
description text
By default, the description of a tunnel
interface is Tunnel number Interface.
4. Set the MTU of the tunnel
interface.
mtu mtu-size By default, the MTU is 64000 bytes.
