Hi List, FYI. We have been using CentOS 6.4 and have 2 vpn/gre tunnels to separate cisco rtrs using ospf. with kernel 2.6.32-358.23.2 We have upgraded to 6.5 bit using kernel 2.6.32-431.5.1 and the exact same configuration scripts for our vpn/gre tunnels. What I see is the first gre tunnel works great and I get an ospf neighbor. The second tunnel comes up and I can ping across it and I see our side sending hello packets in the gre tunnel but I never receive any hello packets from the cisco. The cisco sees our hellos because it goes into the Init state. I do a tcpdump and I see esp traffic coming from the cisco like it is sending hellos but they never show up in a tcpdump on the gre tunnel. It is like the kernel is not delivering them. Also my gre tunnels on CentOS 6.5 are named gre1 at NONE and gre2 at NONE with an ip a s, while on the 6.4 CentOS system they show up as only gre1 and gre2? Whats with the @NONE? Looking at the Changelog of the kernel a lot of changes to the ip_gre module were made in 2.6.32-380 -- Stephen Clark *NetWolves Managed Services, LLC.* Director of Technology Phone: 813-579-3200 Fax: 813-882-0209 Email: steve.clark at netwolves.com http://www.netwolves.com
