7.5 GRE Tunnels

Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunnels can be used to create a connection between two private networks. The

IBR600/IBR650 is enabled for either GRE or VPN tunnels. GRE tunnels are simpler to configure and more flexible for

different kinds of packet exchanges, but VPN tunnels are much more secure.

In order to set up a tunnel you must know the following:

• Local Network and Remote Network addresses for the “Glue Network,” the network that is created by the

administrator that serves as the “glue” between the networks of the tunnel. Each address must be a different IP

address from the same private network, and these addresses together form the endpoints of the tunnel.

• Remote Gateway, the public facing WAN IP address that the local gateway is going to connect to.

• Optionally, you might also want to enable the tunnel Keep Alive feature to monitor the status of a tunnel and more

accurately determine if the tunnel is alive or not.

Click Add to configure a new GRE tunnel.
