GRE tunnel and HSRP

All,

Does Cisco support the GRE tunnel source to be an HSRP VIP?

Thanks,

Hi,

I already used this trick to terminate a GRE tunnel on a VIP and it worked. Only your active HSRP router will process the GRE packet. The point is your convergence time will be higher than having two GRE tunnels.
