Understanding VLAN-Transparent and VLAN-Specific Services
The ML-Series card supports combining VLAN-transparent services and one or more VLAN-specific
services on the same port. All of these VLAN-transparent and VLAN-specific services can be
point-to-point or multipoint-to-multipoint.
This allows a service provider to combine a VLAN-transparent service, such as IEEE 802.1Q tunneling
(QinQ), with VLAN-specific services, such as bridging specific VLANs, on the same customer port. For
example, one customer VLAN can connect to Internet access and the other customer VLANs can be
tunneled over a single provider VLAN to another customer site, all over a single port at each site.
Table 8-1 outlines the differences between VLAN-transparent and VLAN-specific services.
Note VLAN-transparent service is also referred to as Ethernet Wire Service (EWS). VLAN-specific service
is also referred to as QinQ tunneling trunk UNI in Metro Ethernet terminology.
