L2PT is enabled on this port, it is forwarded to the following ports in the same S-VLAN:
(a) other access ports for which L2PT is enabled, and (b) uplink ports after rewriting
the destination address to make it a GBPT protocol packet (i.e., setting the destination
address to 01-00-0C-CD-CD-D0).

L2PT is disabled on this port, it is forwarded to the following ports in the same S-VLAN:
