WireGuard will perform much better than the GRE Tunnel thanks to their kernel driver.

Generally we can divide this usage into two. In this header, 1 Byte is main part and 4 bytes are more optional parts.įor detailed information about GRE Header, you can check Cisco’s Support Forum. As you can see below, GRE Header is between two IP Header. This GRE Header is inserted with new IP Address (Tunnel IP Address) after the IP Header. These IPs are:įor Tunnel building, a GRE Header is inserted into the packet. To do this, we will give the real interface IP’s of Tunnel start and end points.Īs you can see above, for a GRE Tunnel, there are two important IPs and you must not mix them. After configuring passenger IP, we need to define physical source and destination of our Tunnel. This IP can also be called as passenger IP. This address will be our Tunnel’s one end IP address. In thsese routers, firstly, we need to create a Tunnel interface and then we add Tunnel IP Address to this interface. To configure GRE, we need two routers that we want to communicate. GRE Configuration is a very simple configuration. With this tunnels, a virtual network is build over a public physical network and different branches of the same company, can cummunicate eachother. Tunnel End Points know this passenger protocol but between the end points, the tranportation is done with transport protocol. This Tunnel means that there is a transport protocol and a passenger protocol. GRE provides this communication over a Tunnel. A Service Provider Network or Internet is used for GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation). GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation), GRE Tunnel is the mechanism that encapsulate one protocol in another protocol and provides connection between the nodes.
