Please i want to know if the GRE tunnel has limitation for traffic passes over it depend only on physical media.

Example:if i want 5GIG traffic to pass over GRE tunnel and physical media have BW 10 GIG ,GRE tunnel can handle this amount of traffic or not.

it's depends on you equipment. if you have something like asr1000 on both sides (or other device which handle gre in hardware), you can achieve speed more than 5gbps.

if the devices CISCO 7600 can it handle traffic more than 5G
