--Sig_/LqeA0fHD7vKWquT__iUGOMZ Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello, I would like to set up a GRE tunnel using GUE or FOU, but it doesn't seem to be working: ``` root@host1:~# ip link add ip6greguetunnel type ip6gre remote fd6c:ffa:eb7a:= 74e2::141 local fd6c:ffa:eb7a:74e2::171 encap gue encap-dport 6661 RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument root@host1:~# ip link add ip6greguetunnel type ip6gre remote fd6c:ffa:eb7a:= 74e2::141 local fd6c:ffa:eb7a:74e2::171 encap fou encap-dport 6661 RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument ``` Does anyone know why? What am I doing wrong? What does "Invalid argument" mean in this context? If this isn't the right place to ask, I would appreciate being directed to the right place :-) Best regards, Marek K=C3=BCthe --=20 Marek K=C3=BCthe [email protected] er/ihm he/him --Sig_/LqeA0fHD7vKWquT__iUGOMZ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEmqKBWfzrPNg7whIBfoaRRmmRCMcFAmlvdVcACgkQfoaRRmmR CMepsRAApeSJccvOSKrNtsV26uveJ5FbMcLavVG4XbMU6AhkZMhz4XdO14SgCc3b 62UzvKY6BzhOIgsE1oLQpzpubMYt6geElj3SRjhl4xkugmSEyvHSFOz11GxhDrkc 0huaY4rklR04PqqkI36qhwi2jPZhF7gDx/ycQyzYueL2IPBVdtVj6iVZxqUDVCBB Zz6NkYmNhQrF2zfE6VUbeGh6hqEGTe79Sg4CG4KFflGz76e2DqQm4SoAQheQC1eP pStPaqJ68b/+JXqVROzinh4QappnGW1W5gd18TV76lhuH0wWp5s/CK0EpZvctaKO 0+RM+VHh9p+pA4pExjUKfnVOBL0sd/UGgOql2i38gLz2hywTP6jEB5u4hInf7UQ0 Tv1tY4TPEqldZVgrYQNM45BJuoT4ih2uR5gce2hWMI090gXb1761+n+BhbTI1bLN CnNDIU7YiwW5hwo1z5/dwuod5E8AIHdi3xq2U6wyVdWLRhxctZZdJTbsyuoACWye /k5gkOWSZsSglCMAbz/6wrSwY/CunSPXhOrouW5vC6xOSdl+3GBR7w3dr6570dO/ ZuwmOCNe5WfNsCxdDnswGnJ+GbZTyQkjl5rj7Hjc0J5ruWYQSeB0SJQUMUGnx8p+ 50jQnpuBYRA/mDLxFPA1LwB8Iucoa3iL7EtzeAUdNURwO4jRytM= =CmBY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/LqeA0fHD7vKWquT__iUGOMZ--
