RE: GRE TUNNEL/Ethernet-broadcast-like? [7:72738]
When I first triggered this question, certainly I took advantage of having a forum full of creative techie people. Why would I need to bridge 2 LANs, separated from a couple of routers or so, using a tunnel? Well, that question, indeed, came from one of our customers, and then my coming to think of ..."why not". Like some guys said, if GRE tunnels can transport multicast traffic, why not broadcast traffic? I'll try out some guidelines you guys wrote earlier, like using IRB and so. I would like to think that this forum was created not only for asking certification questions but also for learning. I strongly believe that what technology can't do now, will do tomorrow.

Re: Starting off towards a CCNP [7:72734]
The BCMSN book I have, seems to focus on Catalyst 4000, 5000, 5xxx, 6000, 8500 series. Does this mean I have an older Cisco Press book? best regards, Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=72739&t=72734 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
GRE TUNNEL/Ethernet-broadcast-like? [7:72738]
Hello, A question barely came up to mind: Would it be possible to "join" a broadcast domain, not by means of a LAN switch but from one remote router to another, using GRE Tunnels? Since I haven't done it before, I kind of thought that it'll be possible. For instance, having: R1eth0(no ip address)--GRE TUNNEL-Ser0--CLOUD--GRE_TUNN--Ser1---R2eth0(no ip address) , where arp packets may flow from R1 to R2 via this GRE Tunnel. Under this scenario and simply put, can R1'sLAN be also part of R2'sLAN? If it's possible, how could the config be like?
