[ovs-discuss] OVS GRE Behavior

[Dmita Levy]

Hello,

Is it possible to get OVS to GRE encapsulate ALL traffic leaving a host
regardless of the packet's destination? We're trying to find a way to make
OVS encapsulate every packet that leaves a host inside of a GRE header and
change the key value as well.

Thanks Always,
Dmita

You can just write a flow to direct all traffic to the GRE port.

As Jesse mentioned, you can write flows. Depending on your requirements, mirroring to a tunnel may be a good alternative.
