Hi,
I've been using 'ip tunnel' from the iproute Debian package to create GRE
tunnels. The following is an example:
ip tunnel add tunnel1 mode gre remote xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx local xxx.xxx.xxx.xx
ip link set up tunnel1
ip link set tunnel1 multicast on
ip address add 192.168.102.6/30 dev tunnel1
ip addr gives me a tunnel of the following:
79: tunnel1@NONE: <POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST,NOARP,UP> mtu 1476 qdisc noqueue
link/gre xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx peer xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
inet 192.168.102.6/30 scope global tunnel1
The problem is when running pimd and trying to establish neighbourships
across the tunnel fails as pimd thinks 192.168.102.5 isn't directly
connected:
20:39:10.359 Ignoring PIM_HELLO from non-neighbor router 192.168.102.5
However, if I issue the command:
ifconfig tunnel1 dstaddr 192.168.102.5
which specifies the other end of the tunnel, giving an output from ip
addr to be:
79: tunnel1@NONE: <POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST,NOARP,UP> mtu 1476 qdisc noqueue
link/gre xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx peer xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
inet 192.168.102.6 peer 192.168.102.5/30 scope global tunnel1
I can't seem to find an equivalent dstaddr command in the iproute set of
tools. Is there such a command, or a similar way to do this?
Cheers,
Chris
