Configuration
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-A basic configuration requires a tunnel source (source-address), a tunnel destination
-(remote), an encapsulation type (gre), and an address (ipv4/ipv6). Below is a
-basic IPv4 only configuration example taken from a VyOS router and a Cisco IOS
-router. The main difference between these two configurations is that VyOS
-requires you explicitly configure the encapsulation type. The Cisco router
-defaults to GRE IP otherwise it would have to be configured as well.
