## Properties

Table 28.

Key Name | Value Type | Default Value | Value Description
--- | --- | --- | ---
    encapsulation-limit
    uint32
    0
| How many additional levels of encapsulation are permitted to be prepended to packets. This property applies only to IPv6 tunnels.
    flags
    uint32
    0
| Tunnel flags. Currently the following values are supported: NM_IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_IP6_IGN_ENCAP_LIMIT (0x1), NM_IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_IP6_USE_ORIG_TCLASS (0x2), NM_IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_IP6_USE_ORIG_FLOWLABEL (0x4), NM_IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_IP6_MIP6_DEV (0x8), NM_IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_IP6_RCV_DSCP_COPY (0x10), NM_IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_IP6_USE_ORIG_FWMARK (0x20). They are valid only for IPv6 tunnels.
    flow-label
    uint32
    0
| The flow label to assign to tunnel packets. This property applies only to IPv6 tunnels.
    input-key
    string
| The key used for tunnel input packets; the property is valid only for certain tunnel modes (GRE, IP6GRE). If empty, no key is used.
    local
    string
| The local endpoint of the tunnel; the value can be empty, otherwise it must contain an IPv4 or IPv6 address.
    mode
    uint32
    0
| The tunneling mode, for example NM_IP_TUNNEL_MODE_IPIP (1) or NM_IP_TUNNEL_MODE_GRE (2).
    mtu
    uint32
    0
| If non-zero, only transmit packets of the specified size or smaller, breaking larger packets up into multiple fragments.
    output-key
    string
| The key used for tunnel output packets; the property is valid only for certain tunnel modes (GRE, IP6GRE). If empty, no key is used.
    parent
    string
| If given, specifies the parent interface name or parent connection UUID the new device will be bound to so that tunneled packets will only be routed via that interface.
    path-mtu-discovery
    boolean
    TRUE
| Whether to enable Path MTU Discovery on this tunnel.
    remote
    string
| The remote endpoint of the tunnel; the value must contain an IPv4 or IPv6 address.
    tos
    uint32
    0
| The type of service (IPv4) or traffic class (IPv6) field to be set on tunneled packets.
    ttl
    uint32
    0
| The TTL to assign to tunneled packets. 0 is a special value meaning that packets inherit the TTL value.
