Configuring IS-IS over a GRE IP tunnel

Configuration considerations

The configuration considerations are as follows:

•

When a GRE tunnel is configured, you cannot configure the same routing protocol on the
tunnel through which the device learns the route to the tunnel destination. For example, if a
device learns the tunnel destination route through the OSPF protocol, you cannot configure the
OSPF protocol on the same Tunnel and vice-versa. When a tunnel has OSPF configured, the
device cannot learn the tunnel destination route through OSPF. This will cause the system to
become unstable.

•

When you have keepalive configured on both sides of a GRE tunnel, we recommend that you
disable the tunnel before changing any tunnel configurations. You can then re-enable the
tunnel to restore it to normal functionality.

•

When configuring a GRE IP Tunnel, the device must be configured with one of the following
CAM Profiles: ipv4, ipv6, mpls-l3vpn, ipv4-vpn, multi-service-2 or mpls-l3vpn-2.

Configuring IS-IS over a GRE IP tunnel

Figure 21

displays a network configured for IS-IS over a GRE IP tunnel. In the example, Brocade

IS-IS Router A and Brocade IS-IS Router B are configured for adjacency. Routers Brocade C and
Brocade D are configured with a GRE IP tunnel. Following the illustration are examples of the
configurations required for IS-IS over a GRE IP tunnel.

IS-IS over a GRE IP tunnel

The following examples describe the configurations that support IS-IS over a GRE IP tunnel for each
of the routers in

Figure 21

.

Brocade IS-IS Router A configuration

To configure Brocade IS-IS Router A for the IS-IS Point-to-Point feature use the following commands.

Brocade(config)# interface ethernet 2/1

Brocade(config-if-e10000-2/1)# ip router isis

Brocade(config-if-e10000-2/1)# ip address 10.10.1.2

Brocade(config-if-e10000-2/1)# isis point-to-point
