Selective QinQ Overview
Selective QinQ is an enhanced application of the VLAN-VPN feature. With the selective QinQ feature,
you can configure inner-to-outer VLAN tag mapping, according to which you can add different outer
VLAN tags to the packets with different inner VLAN tags.
The selective QinQ feature makes the service provider network structure more flexible. You can classify
the terminal users on the port connecting to the access layer device according to their VLAN tags, and
add different outer VLAN tags to these users. In the public network, you can configure QoS policies
based on outer VLAN tags to assign different priorities to different packets, thus providing differentiated
services. See
Figure 2-1 for details.
