Transparant VLAN services

[peter.danielsen]

Hi ...

I'am looking into, how to provide Transparent LAN Services, between 4 site, that are interconneced on Layer2, I don´t want to implement MPLS, in my Layer2 core, the services I want to provide is transparant vlan's, Customer1 have connection to site 1 and 3, and the customer want's his vlan's to be totally transparant (I know that Foundry do that)

Foundry attach a secondary vlan tag on the core switch to identify each customer's traffic …

Any one knows how to do that on Cisco Catalyst 6500 switches .

You can do Q in Q tunneling. That may work for you.

Hi Peter,

If foundary does that ...Cisco will surely do it...

You can go for dot1q tunneling option it seems.

Check this link for more details.

I think this is exactly what you want.
