Hi,
I would like to know the significance of the IP address used in the GRE
tunnel configuration.
I thought that tunnel source XXX & tunnel destination XXXX
are all that is required to get a tunnel to work. However, I did use IP
address on both ends of the tunnel and kept it in the same subnet.
Now, the issue is,
In one setup, I changed the IP addresses to be of different subnet at
the two ends of the tunnel for eg, at end A I would give 10.10.10.1 &
at end B I would give 192.168.10.1.
It didnt work.
However, in my live network where everything (connected & static) are
reditributed into ospf the same setup worked!
which begs the question, what is the role of the IP address assigned to
the tunnel?
