Advanced Traffic Management Guide K/KA/KB.15.15
At the end of the configuration, the following settings will apply:
• All customer A site traffic received on port A1 will be associated with S-VLAN 100. This is
independent of the C-VLAN tag information that the customer frames may carry.
• All customer B Site 1 traffic will be associated with S-VLAN 200 and be switched out to the
core (uplinks A3, A4) with the S-VLAN tag-id of 200.
• The frame size will increase by 4 since ports A3 and A4 are tagged members of S-VLAN 100
and 200.
To configure the switch, follow these steps:
1. Enable QinQ:
Edge l(config)#: qinq svlan tag-type 88a8
2. Reboot the box with the configuration saved to transfer into svlan bridge mode.
NOTE: A reboot is required for the QinQ enable command to take effect.
3. Configure S-VLANs and ports connected to the customer network.
Edge1(config)#: svlan 100
Edge1(svlan-100)#: untagged A1
Edge1(svlan-100)#: exit
Edge1(config)#: int A1 qinq port-type customer-network
Edge1(config)#: svlan 200
Edge1(svlan-200)#: untagged A2
Edge1(svlan-200)#: exit
Edge1(config)#: int A2 qinq port-type customer-network
NOTE: Customer A is assigned S-VLAN 100 and customer B is assigned S-VLAN 200.
However, the same customer can be associated with more that one SVLAN. Also, interfaces
A1 and A2 are configured as customer network ports because they are linked to customer
bridges.
4. Configure the provider ports leading to the core of the provider network.
Edge1(config)#: svlan 100 tagged A3, A4
Edge1(config)#: svlan 200 tagged A3, A4
Edge1(config)#: interface A3,A4 qinq port-type provider-network
NOTE: As recommended by IEEE 802.1ad specification, uplink ports should generally be
configured as tagged ports for S-VLANs that are used to carry customer traffic. However, this
is not a mandatory requirement on HP switches—S-VLANs that are used for internal provider
network use (not carrying customer traffic but for management of the provider network devices)
can have untagged port memberships.
QinQ Configuration example: provider Edge 2 switch
The configuration details for the Edge 2 switch mirrors the configuration for the Edge 1 switch. All
customer traffic received on port A1 from customer A's site 2 will be associated with S-VLAN 100.
Similarly, all customer B's site 2 traffic will be associated with S-VLAN 200.
To configure the switch, follow these steps:
1. Enable QinQ:
Edge 2(config)#: qinq svlan tag-type 88a8
2. Reboot the box with the configuration saved to transfer into S-VLAN bridge mode.
3. Configure S-VLANs and customer ports connected to the customer network.
Edge2(config)#: svlan 100
Edge2(svlan-100)#: untagged A1
Edge2(svlan-100)#: exit
Edge2(config)#: int A1 qinq port-type customer-network
