I have an ubuntu server behind a router that I am configuring to have a GRE tunnel to another remote device across the interwebs.



in the config, I add the line:



pre-up iptunnel add tun1 mode gre local [local ip] remote [remote ip] ttl 255


Since the ubuntu server is behind a router, should the [local ip] be the wan ip of the router? or the actual local ip of the ethernet interface i wish the tunnel to connect through?



The router the server sits behind doesn't say anywhere anything about forwarding GRE 47 to lan devices, so I just DMZ'd the server (no ideal in product, but I am just testing using GRE to allow for multicast discovery from 1 subnet to another)



Here is the full script (with local ip set as lan ip of ubuntu server)



auto tun1
iface tun1 inet static
address 10.0.33.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
pre-up iptunnel add tun1 mode gre local 192.168.33.72 remote x.x.x.x ttl 255
up ifconfig tun1 multicast pointopoint 10.0.33.2
post-down iptunnel del tun1

  • Just a thought, but you should probably be using ip to configure your tunnel, not iptunnel. The IP docs are better.

  • ip should looks like it is very close to iptunnel. The difference is that iptunnel doesn't appear to have any associated man pages. But ip doesn, and see the link in my previous comment. Also see the examples in the LARTC HOWTO. lartc.org/lartc.html#LARTC.TUNNEL

The IP is the IP of the server and not the IP of router.

So let say you have 1.2.3.4/24 configured on eth0, with 1.2.3.1 being the the default gw/router, then the command would be:



iptunnel add tun1 mode gre local 1.2.3.4 remote x.x.x.x ttl y
