tunx
The identifier of a tunnel interface. The identifier ranges from tun0 through tunx, where x is a nonnegative integer.

				flowlabel 
					0-0xfffff
					inherit
			}
		}
	}
}

The flow label field of the encapsulated packet is copied into the flow label field of the IPv6 header of a tunnel packet.

Use the set form of this command to specify the flowlabel of the encapsulating IPv6 header.

Use the delete form of this command to restore the default flow label, which is the flow label of the encapsulated packet.

Use the show form of this command to display the current flow label.
