Subject: [ovs-discuss] GRE ipsec tunnels over open vswitch

Hello,

I would like to know more about How I can setup GRE ipsec tunnel between vm using open vswitch.
[Sugesh] The ipsec tunnel setup is similar to normal tunnel setup except that you need to install all the necessary kernel ipsec + openvswitch-ipsec packages. An eg; for creating an ipsec-tunnel port is given below.
    sudo ovs-vsctl --timeout 10 add-port br0 gre1 -- \
    set interface gre1 type=ipsec_gre \
    options:remote_ip=100.0.0.2 options:psk=test
The port creation will be successful if all the prerequisites met.

Thanks,
-sanket
