本文详细介绍了三层(L3)隧道技术的基本概念与配置步骤。L3隧道主要用于通过另一个IP网络连接两个分离的IP网络，涉及路由启用、网络拓扑设置、主机及交换机配置、GRE隧道建立等内容。

Introduction

Since L3 tunneling is fundamentally a routing technology, the switch where tunnels should to be configured needs to have routing enabled.

#enable routing
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/forwarding
sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding = 1

Topology

In abstract, the reason to create an IP-in-IP tunnel is to connect two IP networks separated by another IP network. In the example here, the two domains to be connected are represented by two hosts with arbitrarily-chosen addresses 192.168.1.33 resp. 192.168.2.33. The two hosts are each connected to a tunnel endpoint, addressed 1.2.3.4/31, which wraps up the host traffic and delivers it through a tunnel to the other endpoint. The encapsulated traffic travels over a transport network, here addressed 192.168.99.0/24.

In tunneling parlance, the traffic flowing between the two separated IP domains is called overlay traffic, and correspondingly the network where it flows overlay network. The encapsulated traffic on the other hand is called underlay traffic, and the network where it flows underlay network.

Overlay Configuration

#host1
ip link set eth0 up
ip addr add 192.168.1.33/24 dev eth0
ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 via 192.168.1.1

#host2
ip link set eth0 up
ip addr add 192.168.2.33/24 dev eth0
ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 via 192.168.2.1

#switch1
ip link set sw1p49 up
ip addr add 192.168.1.1/24 dev sw1p49

#switch2
ip link set sw1p49 up
ip addr add 192.168.2.1/24 dev sw1p49

Tunnel Configuration

There are two ways that GRE tunnel endpoint can be set up. Either overlay and underlay are each in a different VRF (which we call hierarchical configuration), or they share the same VRF (flat configuration).

#sw2

ip link set g up
ip addr add 1.2.3.5/32 dev g

ip link set sw1p50 up

ip route add 1.2.3.4/32 via 192.168.99.1

ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 dev g

Hierarchical Configuration

This is similar in spirit to the flat configuration, however now the GRE netdevice has a bound device that selects a VRF to use for underlay traffic. Typically this would be a different VRF than the one with the GRE netdevice itself, but it does not have to be.
