Instead of assigning the tunnel endpoint address to an interface, it is also possible to reserve an IP address to a particular tunnel function, by setting the next-index in the corresponding FIB entry/adjacency. We typically do this for the mesh type tunnel solutions, were on some of the we don'

Hi Jakub, A quick refresher on IP Addressing ☺ In the world or tunnels we typically talk about the underlay and the overlay. The underlay will contain the addresses that form the tunnel’s source and destination address (the addresses one sees in the outer IP header) – i.e. the address in ‘crea
