Magic Transit supports a "weight" field that you can apply to a tunnel so that a specified percentage of traffic uses that tunnel rather than other equal-cost tunnels.
To accommodate the additional header data introduced by encapsulation, the maximum segment size (MSS) must be adjusted so that packets comply with the standard Internet routable maximum transmission unit (MTU), which is 1500 bytes.

## Scoped routes for GRE tunnels
81
+
82
+
To reduce latency for your GRE tunnel configurations, especially if you operate your own Anycast network, Cloudflare can steer your traffic by scoping it to specific Cloudflare data center regions.
83
+
84
+
Valid Cloudflare regions include AFR, APAC, EEUR, ENAM, ME, OC, SAM, WEUR, and WNAM.
85
+
86
+
To configure scoping for your traffic, you must provide Cloudflare with GRE tunnel data for each Cloudflare region.
87
+
88

For an example of scoping configuration data, see the table below. It lists GRE tunnels and their associated Cloudflare region codes:

When customers supply their own ASN, Cloudflare prepends the main Cloudflare ASN (AS13335) to the BGP AS_PATH. For example, if the customer ASN is AS64496, anyone directly peering with Cloudflare sees the path as `13335 64496`.
