Tunnelling between Cisco and Freebsd

[krad]

check the tunnel status as when i create on by default its not up

# ifconfig gre0
gre0: flags=9010<POINTOPOINT,LINK0,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1476
        nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>


to fix

# ifconfig gre0 up
# ifconfig gre0
gre0: flags=9011<UP,POINTOPOINT,LINK0,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1476
        inet6 fe80::a00:27ff:fe7d:7332%gre0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6
        nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>


If you still have issues, you may need to specify the public ip on the
tunnel config. I seem to remember having to do this years ago with some gif
tunnels, but it may well be wrong now, maybe someone else can comment on
this

 eg

ifconfig gre0 tunnel 107.48.4.129 187.255.253.1

You might have to bind the public ip to your loopback to make this work.
