To encapsulate an Ethernet MAC header in the PPP frames, the port ‘so.6.1’ PoS port and its peer at the edge of the
cloud must be set in the Ethernet bridged encapsulation mode.
To enable Ethernet bridged encapsulation on port ‘so.6.1’ for PPP traffic:
Note PoS ports that will be trunk ports (i.e., support the 802.1q protocol) must be
configured for bridged encapsulation. See the documentation for the
