[j-nsp] GRE Tunnels

[varaillon]

Hi,

Thanks for your replies.

So basically, I can do GRE tunneling in software, meaning Junos allows me to
do that (ok I know now I just did it and it works) though, the traffic is
routed/switched through that tunnel in software and not in hardware.

Is that right?

Christophe

Ehlo,

You'd need Tunnel/AS/multiserice pics to configure full blown gre ( or for 
that matter any tunnel intf )
( well , unless you have MX series , where you can configure FPC to do extra

loop services ).
There is also possibilty to do some RE originated gre intf ( interface gre )

, but it's rather for lab/routing protocol signalization tunneling , not for

forwarding high volume of production traffic :>>
