      I have a problem with routing over a GRE Tunnel. I have 2 Sites with a working gre tunnel. the routing between the 2 sites working form default interface and from the tunnel source (ping). All the attached and routet interfaces are responding. But when I ping with the source of a LAN Interface to the destination LAN on the other side, the pings are blocked.

      ping from site 2 source 192.168.6.1 to site 1 192.168.11.1 -> not working
      ping from site 2 source default to site 1 192.168.11.1 -> working
      ping from site 2 source 10.101.99.6 to site 1 192.168.11.1 -> working

      the firewall on both side are fully open on lan and also on the tunnel interface.

      Is there someone who can help me with the routings? How I can realise this setup?

        The routes work from any additional interface but not from the system generated LAN interface.

          On the 2nd box the same problem:

          10.102.1.0/24 10.101.99.2 UG 0 0 1476 gre1 -> don't work
          10.102.11.0/24 10.101.99.2 UG 0 0 1476 gre1 -> don't work
          10.102.12.0/24 10.101.99.2 UG 0 3 1476 gre1 -> working
          10.102.21.0/24 10.101.99.2 UG 0 3 1476 gre1 -> working
          10.102.31.0/24 10.101.99.2 UG 0 3 1476 gre1 -> working

          I don't know why some subnets are working and some others not

          Anyone a idea?

            I found the problem  :) There was some old not cleared routing rules from a old and deleted ipsec configuration. Now all routes are working as designed.
