Symptoms

If the IPsec tunnel interface is used to construct another tunnel, such as IPIP, GRE tunnels, the innermost tunnel traffic cannot be passed through the IPsec tunnel interface.

Impact

Traffic does not pass as expected.

Conditions

The self-IP of the IPsec tunnel interface is used as the local-address of other tunnel types.

Workaround

None

Fix Information

Constructing such as IPIP, GRE tunnels using the IPsec tunnel interface now passes traffic as expected.
