Strange EIGRP/GRE issue

saimbt
Level 1
Level 1

I have 2 3825 routers and have configured GRE+ EIGRP. I have 2 tunnels one going to loctnA and the other to loctnB. The GRE tunnel to loctnA is pefect. There is a lot of latency on the loctnB GRE tunnel. The end to end ping to the physical interace results in a avg latency of 4 msec, whereas ping to the tunnel interface reseults on 110 msec.

Any leads?

HI Sai, [Pls Rate if HELPS]

What is the "Tunnel Mode" configured on the Tunnel Interface.

If Tunnel Mode as "ipip" is configured means, remove the same and try. I have experienced the smiliar issue and after doing a same it worked properly.

Also, redo the configuration of EIGRP on either side for Location B. This will something look like a propability try but have experienced several such cases with EIGRP and after redo of config it has worked.

Pls Rate if HELPS

MTU mismatch may cause the issue since it will cause many more traffic fragmentations.

I saw you have "ip mtu 1420" setup in Tunnel0 why not in Tunnel1? Any history reason?

I would suggest to configure same in Tunnel1 and give it try.

Or, use 'tunnel path-mtu-discovery' in Tunnel1 for its to do automatically detect proper MTU for end-2-end trffic flow.

Please let me know the result and rate it.
