The service provider network comprises packet input/output devices, and thecustomer network has networks A and B. On the service provider network, configure the arriving STPpackets at the input device to have MAC addresses in a special format, and reconvert them back to theiroriginal formats at the output device. This is how transparent transmission is implemented over theservice provider network.Figure 1-9 VLAN-VPN tunnel network hierarchyNetworkNetwork A Network BCustomer networksService provider networkPacket input/outputdevicePacket input/outputdeviceConfiguring VLAN-VPN tunnelFollow these steps to configure VLAN-VPN tunnel:To do...
