Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) protocol is another form of tunneling that Netopia routers suppor t. A GRE 
tunnel is brought up when a valid GRE profile is installed, and brought down when the profile is disabled, or 
deleted.

GRE tunnels are not connection-based, but rather are installed and simply wait for GRE packets. There is no 
special star tup initiation as with PPPoE or PPTP. GRE is best adapted to simple routing and/or tunneling, and is 
not for use with any sensitive data. GRE offers no encr yption; and authentication of data integrity is limited to 
checksum verification, if enabled.

To set up a GRE tunnel, you create a Connection Profile including the IP address and other relevant information 
for the remote par tner.

When you define a Connection Profile as using GRE by selecting GRE as the Encapsulation Type, and then 
select Encapsulation Options, the GRE Tunnel Options screen appears.
