Trustgrid supports configuring GRE tunnels that can be used to establish connectivity to any appliance that supports the GRE protocol. A GRE tunnel interface is created which can then be attached to an interface on a node. VRFs can then be used to control the flow of traffic and how it should appear on the network.
Configure GRE Tunnel
On a Trustgrid Node navigate to Tunnels under the Network Menu, select Add Tunnel, and then select GRE
