GigaSMART IP Encapsulation (GigaSMART Tunnel)

Required License for IP Encapsulation: Advanced Tunneling (GigaVUE-HD4, GigaVUE-HD8, GigaVUE-HC2, and GigaVUE-HC3), Tunneling (GigaVUE-HC1 and GigaVUE-HB1)

GigaSMART-enabled nodes with the Advanced Tunneling license installed can encapsulate traffic and send it through a GigaSMART tunnel to a destination GigaSMART-enabled node.

1.

Configure an IP interface with an IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and MTU setting and assign it to a GigaSMART group.

2.

Create a GigaSMART operation with a Tunnel Encapsulation component. The encapsulation settings include the IP address and listening UDP port of the IP interface associated with network port on the destination GigaVUE H Series.

3.

Bind the GigaSMART operation to one or more network ports as part of a map. The network ports must be mapped to the IP interface associated with a tool port.

Refer to the sections beginning with Configuring Both Ends of the GigaSMART Tunnel for examples of the end-to-end configuration of a GigaSMART tunnel.
