Hi All,
I have been experiencing a difficulty in configuring a L2 bridging/local connect on a SPA-2X1GE-V2 card in a 7600-SIP-400. [12.2(33) SRD]
Pl refer the attached solution diagram.(MPLS Local Connect.jpg)
My requirement is to provide a L2 connection to one of our customers whrere both locations report to a single Radio base station. We cannot configure same VLAN in both radio links due to a limitation in the base station itself.(Then we could have switch traffic from the Ethernet Aggrigation Switch ). CPE-1 tag VLAN 155 & CPE-2 tag VLAN 156 and send frames to MPLS PE. At the MPLS PE both links terminate on a Gigi Ethernet port as service instances where we need to "hair Pin".
Below given the configurations.
Option -1
interface GigabitEthernet8/0/1
description ##### Connection to MAB002-SW1 - Gi 1/1/1 - MTU 1600 #####
mtu 1600
no ip address
negotiation auto
cdp enable
service instance 155 ethernet
encapsulation dot1q 155
rewrite ingress tag translate 1-to-1 dot1q 156 symmetric
bridge-domain 10
!
service instance 156 ethernet
encapsulation dot1q 156
bridge-domain 10
!
End
!
bridge-domain 10

bridge irb

================================================================================
15 TEST_L2 Gi8/0/1:100 Gi8/0/1:200 UP
MAB002-PE#
HOWEVER WE COULDN'T "PING" EITHER DIRECTION ON BOTH CONFIGURATIONS OPTIONS.
(ping 10.10.10.1 or 10.10.10.2)
Hope an expert will assist us to resolve this issue.
Note: Option two works in Cisco GSR routers. (12406 on SPA-2X1GE-V1 on a 12000-SIP-401 - IOS12.0(32)SY7)
Thank You in advance,
Chaminda.

I have not tested it myself but try the following configuration instead:
nterface GigabitEthernet8/0/1
description ##### Connection to MAB002-SW1 - Gi 1/1/1 - MTU 1600 #####
mtu 1600
no ip address
negotiation auto
cdp enable
service instance 155 ethernet
encapsulation dot1q 155
rewrite ingress tag translate 1-to-1 dot1q 156 symmetric
!
service instance 156 ethernet
encapsulation dot1q 156
!
!
connect TEST_L2 GigabitEthernet8/0/1 155 GigabitEthernet8/0/1 156

Hi Atif,
Thank you for adding your valuable suggestion for my question.
I tried the configuraton you suggested; but no luck.
