Hi Rene,

Quick Question,
Why the TU1 and TU2 tunnels has the destination address as 5.5.5.5 which is PE2 loopback and the master tunnel has 6.6.6.6 which is CE2 loopback

Hello Anudeep

You are correct, the destination address of the master tunnel should be the PE2 router. However, it seems that there was a typo in the configuration. If you look at the final configs at the bottom of the lesson, you will see that the loopback address of PE2 is indeed 6.6.6.6. Rene is aware of this, and will make the appropriate corrections.

Thanks for pointing that out!

Hello @cdeepu702 ,

You are right, I messed something up.

My PE2 router had loopback 6.6.6.6 instead of 5.5.5.5.

The CE2 router had loopback 7.7.7.7 instead of 6.6.6.6.

I just fixed this. It now matches the topology. I’ll have to re-record the video which I’ll do soon.

Rene
