VLANIF interfaces
The sub-interfaces can be dotlq sub-interfaces, QinQ sub-interfaces, VLAN mapping sub-
interfaces, or VLAN stacking sub-interfaces.
When XGE, GE, Ethernet, or Eth-Trunk interfaces are used as AC interfaces, the outer tags
carried in the packets sent from the AC to the PW are C tags (inserted by customer devices,
which are meaningless to the SP) by default.
When sub-interfaces or VLANIF interfaces are used as AC interfaces, the outer tags carried in
the packets sent from the AC to the PW are S tags (inserted by SP devices, which are usually
used to differentiate user traffic) by default.
NOTE
l
Only VLANIF interfaces can function as the AC interfaces for VLL connections in CCC mode.
l
By default, physical interfaces on the S7700 are Layer 2 interfaces. When using XGE, GE, Ethernet,
or Eth-Trunk interfaces on the S7700 as AC interfaces, you need to run the
undo portswitch
command
to switch Layer 2 interfaces to Layer 3 interfaces.
l
When using GE, XGE, Ethernet, or Eth-Trunk interfaces as AC interfaces, ensure that these interfaces
do not contain any sub-interfaces.

a VLL Network in the

Processing Tags Carried in Packets by the VLL
The system process packets according to the AC interface type and PW encapsulation type.
The PW encapsulation types can be classified into Ethernet encapsulation and VLAN
encapsulation.
l
When VLANIF interfaces or sub-interfaces function as AC interfaces, the VLAN
encapsulation is adopted by default.
l
When Ethernet, GE, XGE, or Eth-Trunk interfaces function as AC interfaces, the Ethernet
encapsulation is adopted by default.

VLAN encapsulation
Do not process the S tag carried in a packet.
Ethernet encapsulation
If an S tag is carried in a packet, delete the S
tag from the packet.
If no S tag is carried in a packet, do not
process the packet.
