Configure a GRE Tunnel
4. If you have selected Network or Host, type the Destination Address, which
depends on the destination type that you chose:
Network—type the IP address and subnet mask of the destination
network (behind the remote tunnel gateway).
Host—type the IP address of the host (behind the remote tunnel
gateway).
The correct address corresponds to 4 in the example figure.
5. For Gateway Address, type the tunnel IP address of the remote tunnel
gateway (indicated by 6 in the figure).
6. For Metric, type a value to represent the distance to the destination
address.
If this is a route over a backup GRE tunnel and the primary tunnel also
uses a static route, type a higher value than that used in the primary route.
7. For Distance, type the administrative distance.
Typically, the distance for a static route is 1. However, if this is a route
over a backup GRE tunnel, type a higher value than that for the primary
route. For example, if the primary tunnel runs OSPF, type a value higher
than OSPF’s administrative distance (by default, 110).
8. Click OK. The route is now displayed in the Network > Routing > Static Routes
window.
9. Click Save.

Configure RIP on a GRE Tunnel Interface
This section includes the most basic steps for configuring RIP on a GRE tunnel
interface. Often you must complete more steps such as redistributing con-
nected routes. For complete instructions for RIP configurations, see
Chapter 9: “Routing.”
1. Click Network > Routing and click the RIP tab.
