Re: [f-nsp] GRE Tunnel - Foundry RX-4 to FESX-648 PREM over Public Internet

The problem you are going to run into is routing outbound traffic the
proper way.  There the solutions I can come up with are policy based
routing (which doesn't seem very elegant) and VRF-lite (not sure if or how
well supported it is in your device).

For policy based, BGP session from corporate office over GRE to advertise
your new route and route map on any interface that may receive traffic from
the new network that sends internet traffic across the GRE tunnel.

For the route map, you need an ACL that denys any local traffic then
permits 0.0.0.0/0, then use that to set the next hop to the other side of
the GRE tunnel.  It kind of defeats the purpose of dynamic routing.

If the corporate device supports VRF-lite, you could create a vrf for that
network, peer it with the datacenter via GRE for a default route, and peer
it with the default vrf for local routes.  Read the docs, though... you
often lose a lot of functionality on an interface that has a VRF on Brocade
devices.
