GRE Connection using 4g

pmarchant1 · ‎05-04-2016

Hi all.

I am trying to create a connection between a 4g site and my home. Only problem is as this is a 4g connection my WAN on the 4g side can only have a dynamic ip unlike my home which has a sticky IP. All the sites i have seen only allow a GRE connection to have an ip not a DNS address which would be usefull and i could us no-ip.org or similar.

Is this possible ?

If not what would be the best alternative method for a semi permanent connection between my 4g site and my home.

If anyone has some examples i would be greatful in my pursuit !

Thanks

Paul

What model and type of device do you have at each site?

Hi Philip. Thank you for replying to my post.

Currently i have a 1841 at home and a 878 at the 4g side. However i could swap round if need be.

I did start to try this using a mikrotik routerbourd but as i am currently studying cisco ccent/ccna i thought would make more sense !

Thank you in advance

I would look at implementing DMVPN. Make the 1841 the head end.
