[device-ip-mode{ipv4|ipv6}|force-disassociate-client|gatewayip-address[primary|secondary]|gateway-mtu{auto|manual-mtu-size}|icmp-periodseconds|icmp-retryretries|name]

If the device-ip-mode keyword is entered with the ipv6 keyword in Soft GRE configuration mode, the following configuration syntax is available instead of the gateway keyword:

Usage Guidelines

The no form of this command in configuration mode deletes the soft GRE tunnel profile.

Soft GRE creates a tunnel profile.

Examples

The following example creates the soft GRE tunnel profile named GRE1. 

device# configure terminal
device(config)# soft-gre GRE1 
device(config-soft-gre)# device-ip-mode ipv4
device(config-soft-gre)# gateway 10.10.2.4 primary
