Configuring a tunnel interface

Configure a Layer 3 virtual tunnel interface on each device on a tunnel so that devices at both ends can
send, identify, and process packets from the tunnel.
A tunneled packet cannot be directly routed based on its destination address. The packet should be sent
to a tunnel-type service loopback group, which then delivers the packet to the forwarding module for
Layer 3 forwarding. Therefore, you must configure a tunnel-type service loopback group. Otherwise, the
tunnel interface will fail to forward and receive packets. For information about service loopback group,
see Layer 2—LAN Switching Configuration Guide.
To configure a tunnel interface:
Step
1. Enter system view.
