TUN-1.4: Interface based IPv6 GRE Encapsulation

Summary

Validate Interface based Ipv6 GRE Tunnel Config.

Procedure

  • Validate the GRE configuration
    • GRE Tunnel interfaces configuration options
      • Tunnel source
      • Tunnel source should be able to configure with unnumbered interface address
      • Tunnel Destination
      • Directly on Tunnel interface or Tunnel Group
  • Configure such 32 tunnel interfaces
  • Configure static route with IPv6 NH pointing to Tunnel interfaces
  • Send 1000 IPv6 flows from tester on ATE-PORT1 connected to DUT-PORT1
  • Enable the packet capture on ATE ingress port to verify the GRE header of encapped traffic
  • Verify the tunnel interfaces counters to confirm the traffic encapsulation
  • After encapsulation, traffic should be load balanced/hash to all available L3 ECMP or LAG or combination of both features
  • Validate system for:
    • TODO: Health-1.1
    • TODO: No feature related error or drop counters incrementing, discussion with vendors required to highlight additional fields to monitor based on implementation and architecture
