we have a hub site and a few remote sites
we route IPX traffic over a medium that is dropping IPX traffic sporadically, although IP is fine. I am thinking about deploying gre tunnels between the central and remote sites. There will be3 tunnels on the hub router.
I have seen config examples where the tunnel source was the LAN interface and other configs where the tunnel source is the WAN interface. What is the difference? I was thinking of using the 1 LAN interface as the tunnel source to all remote tunnel endpoints, is it possible to use the LAN interface as the tunnel source more than once?
ie
int tunnel 0
ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
tunnel source eth0 <---
tunnel dest 172.16.1.1
ipx network CC
int tunnel 1
ip address 10.1.2.1 255.255.255.0
tunnel source eth0 <---
tunnel dest 172.16.2.1
ipx network DD
int tunnel 2
ip address 10.1.3.1 255.255.255.0
tunnel source eth0 <---
tunnel dest 172.16.3.1
ipx network EE
