How to configure a GRE/IPSec VPN - Part 1
Posted by Josh under Cisco , Cisco Routers , Dynamips , GNS3 -I first discovered GRE with IPSec about 4 years ago when a customer needed to transmit IPX and multicast traffic over his VPN. Since then, I have primarly used GRE/IPSEC tunnels for transmitting internal routing protocols over the internet. RIP, EIGRP or OSPF can be used over a GRE tunnel just as though it were a point to point circuit. It is also very useful for multicast music on hold.
This tutorial is part one of a two part series. If you have not already been through the internat lab series, I recommend watching them before starting the GRE/IPSec tutorials - Internet Lab Part 1 and Internet Lab Part 2.

Can you comment on encryption over GRE tunnels?
March 7th, 2008 at 2:23 pm
That is in Part 2 of this series. I already have it recorded, but I am still editing it.

I have seen the crypto map actually been applied to the tunnel interface. In your case, you have applied it to the serial interface. Can you explain when one applies the crypto map to a tunnel interface rather than a physical interface.

In older code, it was appropriate to apply the crypto map to both the serial and tunnel interfaces. I am not sure when they changed it, but I do remember having to apply the crypto map to both.

I couldn´t finish the lab 1 because but i don´t see the tunnels connections between the routers, i can only see the directly connected networks. Did I do something wrong?
It’s seems to me eigrp is not working.
Thanks

@Gabriel - I had the same issue. I wondered how w/o an IGP of sorts Josh was able to send traffic between R1 & R2 when neither knew of each other because of the ISP router. I had to look closer at the output of ’sh ip route’ to see that John had set a default route (gateway of last resort). I don’t remember whether that was addressed or not in the ISP Setup Video.
This is where good trouble shooting comes in. Even if you follow someone else’s steps and maybe miss a part of it; that you can think through the layers to figure out what is missing or wrong.
