If you want, I will set up my router to accept dynamic
GRE connections. Then, anyone with a dynamic IP wanting to do GRE can connect to it.
Sure I would be happy to setup. I might need some assistance regarding
the mGRE config.
Thnk You Dave and Supratim for your connections. It looks like I now
have full connection to all areas looking from my decnet routing
table.
Sorry Fred for the confusion!
Nighttime here in Sweden. More coonfiguration to come!

Thank you for all replies.
I've got area 33 as my own from Johnny so thats where hosts are
going til live when things are setup.
My ip is dynamic, but I've only got one change in a year. Hopefully I
will be able to change to static, but right now my isp only provides
dynamic. Changes are monitored and dynamically updates a dyndns
record.

GRE tunnels can be built if one end is dynamic as
long as your router supports multipoint GRE (mGRE). Check and see if your router supports
the command ?tunnel mode gre multipoint? and that your tunnel supports commands that start
with ?ip nhrp ?. If so, then we should be able to set something up.

Yes it support both commands. It looks like that functionality was
introduced in 12.2

connection to the destination, or even if a destination can be a domain name instead of an
IP address. There are fabulous GRE experts in this group who might chime in.
