I don't remember it working in this fashion... Perhaps it's late at night
and my brain isn't firing correctly, but I always thought the whole point of
"tunnel mode gre ipv6" was that IPv6 was the transport for setting up the
tunnel.

I'm not in front of equipment at the moment, so try this out and see whether
I'm nuts or not. (Which I'm hoping isn't the case, at least not for this!
(grin))

Hi all,

I am having an issue with getting an IPv6 over GRE tunnel to come up. As
soon as I enter the 'tunnel mode gre ipv6' command on the tunnel interface,
the interface goes down and remains down. Here's the config:

R1

interface FastEthernet0/0
 ip address 155.1.10.1 255.255.255.0
 ipv6 address 2001:1::1/64

interface Tunnel14
 no ip address
 ipv6 address 2001:14::1/64
 tunnel source FastEthernet0/0
 tunnel destination 155.1.4.4
 tunnel mode gre ipv6

R4

interface FastEthernet0/0
 ip address 155.1.4.4 255.255.255.0
 ipv6 address 2001:4::4/64

interface Tunnel14
 no ip address
 ipv6 address 2001:14::4/64
 tunnel source FastEthernet0/0
 tunnel destination 155.1.10.1
 tunnel mode gre ipv6

I also tried defining loopback interfaces instead of using the physical
interfaces for tunnel source/destination, but get the same result. The
code is 12.4(10b). Is anyone else seeing this behavior?

Thanks,
Matt
