To configure MC IPsec on a VPRN tunnel interface

Purpose

Perform this procedure to configure MC IPsec to move traffic to the master NE in the event that the standby NE receives traffic.

Note: The port configured on the tunnel must be created using a tunnel SAP. For example, tunnel-x.private/public:y. See To configure a tunnel interface on an IES or VPRN for more information.
