Defining VLAN Membership Groups and Assigning Ports/LAGs Using CLI Commands
For information about the CLI commands that perform this function, see the following chapter in the
CLI Reference Guide :

Double VLAN
The Double VLAN feature allows the use of a second tag on network traffic. The additional tag helps
differentiate between customers in the Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN) while preserving individual
customer’s VLAN identification when they enter their own 802.1Q domain.
With the introduction of this second tag, you do not need to divide the 4k VLAN ID space to send traffic
on an Ethernet-based MAN.
