C-Tag indicates that ethernet frames (CCMs, LBMs, LBRs, LTMs, LTRs) are
tagged with a VLAN tag for the customer space. If All-to-One Bundling is enabled,
C-Tagged frames may be sent double tagged, according to the rules described in
the section “SOAM Functionality with All-to-One Bundling” on page 123.

S-Tag specifies the single S-Tagged UP MEP configured for the All-to-One tunnel.
(See the section “Management IP Configuration” on page 10.)

11.5.2.1 Interoperability between a Y.1731 MEP and 802.1ag MEPs

In general, an 802.1ag MEP cannot interoperate correctly with a Y.1731 MEP; that is, they cannot
correctly exchange CCM messages. Their respective standards do not provide compatibility
methods.
