QinQ (Provider Bridging)

Configuration Example

Configuration Example

Figure 8-6 shows a configuration example that uses four ProCurve switches
to establish a QinQ tunnel through the provider network.

Figure 8-6. QinQ Configuration Example

The design parameters for this example are as follows:

The provider edge bridge and the provider core bridge are configured in
svlan mode.

Each customer is associated with a single S-VLAN connecting two sepa­
rate sites: customer A’s VLANs (C-VLANs 1-10) are associated with
S-VLAN 100; and customer B’s VLANs (C-VLANs 1-20) are associated with
S-VLAN 200.

N o t e s

The VLANs of customers A and B can overlap: this will not result in
intermixing of customer frames in the provider cloud because the
S-VLANs associated with each customer are different.

Core devices are not mandatory to establish a QinQ tunnel. For example,
two edge-bridges can be connected directly to create a provider bridge
network.
