Having the ability to create GRETAP tunnels over IPv6 would be great to have. We already have the ability to do ip6gre tunnels, but they can’t be bridged.

Do you mean “type gretap6” ?

3

Yes, something like that. At the moment, only these seem to be supported:
gre, gretap, ipip, sit, ipip6, ip6ip6, ip6gre

The command to create a GRETAP over v6 tunnel with ip is:
ip link add name gretap100 type ip6gretap local <> remote <> ttl 255

Which version?
Try 1.4

vyos@r14# set interfaces tunnel tun0 encapsulation

Oh I see, I’ll try 1.4. I’m on 1.3 :sweat_smile:
