The scalability offered by DMVPN is made possible, in part, by multipoint GRE (mGRE), which allows a router to support multiple GRE tunnels on a single GRE interface.
Some of mGRE’s characteristics are as follows:
Like traditional GRE, mGRE can transport a wide variety of protocols (for example, IP unicast, multicast, and broadcast).
