Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE)<br />
Bit Number<br />
Strict Source Route (bit 4)<br />
Recursion Control (Bit 5 - 7)<br />
Version Number (bit 13 - 15)<br />
Protocol Type (Bit 16 - 31)<br />
Checksum (2 Octets)<br />
Offset (2 Octet)<br />
Key (4 Octets)<br />
Sequence Number (4 Octets)<br />
Routing (Variable)<br />
Function (continued)<br />
This field is not being used.<br />
This field is defaulted to zero.<br />
The version number field is set to zero.<br />
This field contains the protocol type of the payload<br />
packet. e.g. IP = 0800h, Raw Frame Relay = 6559h,<br />
Novel IPX = 8137h.<br />
This field contains the IP checksum of the GRE<br />
header and payload packet. It contains valid<br />
information only if the Checksum Present bit is <br />
set to 1.<br />
This field contains the octet offset from the start of<br />
the Routing field to the first octet of the active<br />
source route entry. It contains valid information<br />
only if the Routing Present bit is set to 1.<br />
Not Applicable.<br />
This field contains an unsigned 32 bit integer value<br />
and it is used by the receiver to establish the order<br />
in which packets are transmitted from<br />
encapsulation to the receiver. Currently, this field is<br />
not being used.<br />
This field is optional and is present only if the<br />
Routing Present bit is set to 1.<br />
New IP Header<br />
This table describes the fields present in the new IP header added by the tunnel.<br />
Field<br />
Function<br />
Source Address Refer to Tunnel Addresses page 1-4.<br />
Destination Address<br />
Fragment Offset<br />
Flags and<br />
Identification<br />
This field contains the tunnel destination address<br />
configured by the user.<br />
If the packet size is greater than the MTU size then packet<br />
needs to be fragmented. This field specifies the offset in the<br />
original datagram of the data being carried in the fragment.<br />
The first two bits in the Flag and Identification field control<br />
the fragmentation and is copied from the original datagram.<br />
Protocol<br />
This field contains the value 47 which means that the data<br />
portion of the datagram contains GRE protocol.<br />
TTL This field contains a default value of 60.<br />
Checksum<br />
This field contains the checksum for the new IP header.<br />
Options<br />
This field is not used.<br />
The remaining fields are copied from the original IP<br />
datagram.<br />
