This menu allows you to add or edit a tunnel.
The Tunnel Name field will be presented if the tunnel is being created. The tunnel name is purely for
informational purposes. A network interface device with this name will be created. In order that the
name not collide with those used by other interfaces, it will be prefixed with "gre".
The Tunnel IP address field (optionally) configures and IP address on the "gre..." network interface.
The Remote Net field configures the target network, at the ingress/egress at the remote end of the
tunnel, whose traffic is forwarded through the tunnel. It may be an individual IP address or an IP
subnet address, e.g. 192.168.0.0/24. A given Remote Net must not be used by another tunnel.
Setting the Multicast option enables multicast traffic on the tunnel interface.
The Local IP field configures the IP address of the local end of the tunnel.
The Remote IP field configures the IP address of the local remote of the tunnel.
