Hi all,
I have configured GRE Tunnel between two switches using the following
command. The simulator that I am using is GENI hence, I won't be able to
use the eth0 interface.
S1 (eth1 192.168.1.10/24) ---------- S2 (eth1 192.168.1.1/24)
S1 Configuration:
/* (For OVS Installation) */
apt-get install openvswitch-switch
apt-get update
/* (For GRE Tunnel Creation) */
ovs-vsctl add-br br0
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 gre0 -- set interface gre0 type=gre
options:remote_ip=192.168.1.1
S2 Configuration:
apt-get install openvswitch-switch
apt-get update
ovs-vsctl add-br br0
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 gre0 -- set interface gre0 type=gre
options:remote_ip=192.168.1.10
After completion I have tried pinging the two switches and they are able to
communicate successfully but when I take the pcap file of the communication
between the switches (tcpdump -i eth1 -w testing.pcap) *I am not able to
see the GRE encapsulation over packets. *I have used wire-shark to analyze
the packets.
All I am able to see is ICMP request/reply messages.
root@Node1:~# tcpdump -i eth1
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on eth1, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes

Is this the correct way to test? or
Am I missing something?
Kindly, help.
