QinQ tunneling must be enabled on the switch using the

dot1q-tunnel

system-tunnel-control

command before the switchport dot1q-tunnel

mode interface command can take effect.

When a tunnel uplink port receives a packet from a customer, the

customer tag (regardless of whether there are one or more tag layers)

is retained in the inner tag, and the service provider’s tag added to the

outer tag.

When a tunnel uplink port receives a packet from the service provider,

the outer service provider’s tag is stripped off, and the packet passed

on to the VLAN indicated by the inner tag. If no inner tag is found, the

packet is passed onto the native VLAN defined for the uplink port.
