The receiver infers the protocol of a packet received on +a FOU UDP port to be the protocol configured for the port. +.PP +Generic UDP Encapsulation (GUE) encapsulates packets of an IP protocol +within UDP and an encapsulation header. The encapsulation header contains the +IP protocol number for the encapsulated packet. +.PP +When creating a FOU or GUE receive port, the port number is specified in +.I PORT +argument. If FOU is used, the IP protocol number associated with the port is specified in +.I PROTO +argument. +.PP +A FOU or GUE receive port is deleted by specifying +.I PORT +in the delete command. +.SH EXAMPLES +.PP +.SS Configure a FOU receive port for GRE bound to 7777 +.nf +# ip fou add port 8888 ipproto 47 +.PP +.SS Configure a FOU receive port for IPIP bound to 8888 +.nf +# ip fou add port 8888 ipproto 4 +.PP +.SS Configure a GUE receive port bound to 9999 +.nf +# ip fou add port 9999 gue +.PP +.SS Delete the GUE receive port bound to 9999 +.nf +# ip fou del port 9999 +.SH SEE ALSO +.br +.BR ip (8) +.SH AUTHOR +Tom Herbert diff --git a/man/man8/ip-gue.8 b/man/man8/ip-gue.8 new file mode 100644 index 000000000..4d2914c1a --- /dev/null +++ b/man/man8/ip-gue.8 @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +.so man8/ip-fou.8
