  • 1.  Need assistance for GRE tunnel interface IPv6 link-local address

    Posted 02-26-2021 13:49
    I have two vMX routers with GRE connection.

    set logical-systems SRX3 interfaces gr-0/0/10 unit 0 tunnel source 172.30.15.3
    set logical-systems SRX3 interfaces gr-0/0/10 unit 0 tunnel destination 172.30.15.1
    set logical-systems SRX3 interfaces gr-0/0/10 unit 0 family inet address 172.30.0.130/30
    set logical-systems SRX3 interfaces gr-0/0/10 unit 0 family inet6 address fd17:f0f4:f691:3::6/126

    set interfaces gr-0/0/10 unit 0 tunnel source 172.30.15.1
    set interfaces gr-0/0/10 unit 0 tunnel destination 172.30.15.3
    set interfaces gr-0/0/10 unit 0 family inet address 172.30.0.129/30
    set interfaces gr-0/0/10 unit 0 family inet6 address fd17:f0f4:f691:3::5/126

    GRE works fine.
    On both routers, I have ospf3 configurations as follows:

    root@SRX1-ISP1# show | display set | match ospf3 | match gr-0/0
    set protocols ospf3 realm ipv4-unicast area 0.0.0.3 interface gr-0/0/10.0 interface-type p2p
    set protocols ospf3 area 0.0.0.3 interface gr-0/0/10.0 interface-type p2p

    root@SRX3-SRX4# show logical-systems | display set | match ospf3 | match gr-0/0
    set logical-systems SRX3 protocols ospf3 realm ipv4-unicast area 0.0.0.3 interface gr-0/0/10.0 interface-type p2p
    set logical-systems SRX3 protocols ospf3 area 0.0.0.3 interface gr-0/0/10.0 interface-type p2p

    I got the following from traceoptions:

    I noticed both link-local addresses are the same. Do you think I need to manually configure link-local address on gre itnerfaces ?

    thanks in advance !!!

    The link local addresses are only used by the local link devices that are connected.  So they are locally agreed upon and it makes no difference if they are reused in other parts of the network.
