Most likely it will work fine as a bridged network over the tunnel. But in this can I still don't understand the purpose of the GRE!? I though that is passing both the broadcasts/multicasts in order to run for ex. EIGRP or OSPF in a mesh VPN environment.

Do you have the option of bridging between the two networks, and configuring both networks as if they were the same network? Think of the bridge as a long ethernet cable. -----Original Message----- From: Alex Berdan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 01, 2006 4:00 PM To: Will H.

I want the broadcast/multicast to pass my gre0 tunnel and reach from one side to the other. I have even added the 224.0.0.0/4 with gateway 192.168.3.1 on Gateway A and 224.0.0.0/24 with gateway 192.168.1.1 on gateway B and still doesn't cross any multicast or broadcast.
