Thanks very much Jesse,

I want to tunnel two openvsiwtch on two physical xenserver  behind the
firewall. Only two firewalls at each site have the public ip.  If there any
way I can make that work ?

I heard that the GRE is using port 47 and I enable the NAT on the firewall
for port 47. But It does not work. Any idea ?

Thanks very much.
