Summary:

This Article explains about how to setup QinQ in ICX switches. QinQ setup in used in networks like service provider, ISP’s etc. to help mange the network easily and provide more sublets independent of each other.

Question:

How to configure QinQ using tag profile in ICX switches

Customer Environment:

Customer environment would be mostly a service provider network.

Topology:

Note:

Service provider switch model is 7550-24 port model.
Client switch model is a 7150-24 port model.
Firmware version running is SPR8095m.

Configuration:

Client switch 1 Configuration:

!
vlan 100 by port
tagged ethe 1/1/2
router-interface ve 100
spanning-tree 802-1w
!

!
interface ve 100
ip address 100.0.0.2 255.255.255.0
!

Client switch 2 Configuration:

!
vlan 100 by port
tagged ethe 1/1/1
router-interface ve 100
spanning-tree 802-1w
spanning-tree 802-1w priority 1
!

!
interface ve 100
ip address 100.0.0.1 255.255.255.0
!

Service provider switch 1 Configuration:

!
vlan 1000 by port
tagged ethe 1/1/3
untagged ethe 1/1/2
!
tag-profile 9100
!
!
interface ethernet 1/1/2
tag-profile enable
l2protocol dot1q-tunnel stp
l2protocol dot1q-tunnel lacp
l2protocol dot1q-tunnel cdp
l2protocol dot1q-tunnel lldp
!

Service provider switch 2 Configuration:

vlan 1000 by port
tagged ethe 1/1/3
untagged ethe 1/1/1
!
tag-profile 9100
!
interface ethernet 1/1/1
tag-profile enable
l2protocol dot1q-tunnel stp
l2protocol dot1q-tunnel lacp
l2protocol dot1q-tunnel cdp
l2protocol dot1q-tunnel lldp
