About VLAN Mapping

WS-C4948-10GE does not support VLAN mapping. VLAN mapping is only supported on Supervisor
Note
Engine 6-E and later engines.
In a typical deployment of VLAN mapping, you want the service provider to provide a transparent
switching infrastructure that treats customers' switches at the remote location as a part of the local site.
This allows customers to use the same VLAN ID space and run Layer 2 control protocols seamlessly
across the provider network. In such scenarios, we recommend that service providers do not impose their
VLAN IDs on their customers.
One way to establish translated VLAN IDs (S-VLANs) is to map customer VLANs to service-provider
VLANs (called VLAN ID translation) on trunk ports connected to a customer network. Packets entering
the port are mapped to a service provider VLAN (S-VLAN) based on the port number and the packet's
original customer VLAN-ID (C-VLAN).
Service providers's internal assignments might conflict with a customer's VLAN. To isolate customer
traffic, a service provider could decide to map a specific VLAN into another one while the traffic is in
its cloud.
Deployment Example
In Figure
The service provider separates the data and control traffic between the two customers and from the
providers' own control traffic. The service provider network must also be transparent to the customer
edge devices.
