General Configuration Guidelines for QinQ
Enable Tunnel Status, and set the Tag Protocol Identifier (TPID) value of
1.
the tunnel access port (in the Ethernet Type field). This step is required
if the attached client is using a nonstandard 2-byte ethertype to
identify 802.1Q tagged frames. The default ethertype value is 0x8100.

Use the VLAN > Tunnel (Configure Global) page to configure the switch to
operate in IEEE 802.1Q (QinQ) tunneling mode, which is used for passing
Layer 2 traffic across a service provider's metropolitan area network. You
can also globally set the Tag Protocol Identifier (TPID) value of the tunnel
port if the attached client is using a nonstandard 2-byte ethertype to
identify 802.1Q tagged frames.

P
ARAMETERS
These parameters are displayed:
Tunnel Status – Sets the switch to QinQ mode. (Default: Disabled)
◆
Ethernet Type – The Tag Protocol Identifier (TPID) specifies the
◆
ethertype of incoming packets on a tunnel port. (Range: hexadecimal
0800-FFFF; Default: 8100)
Use this field to set a custom 802.1Q ethertype value for the 802.1Q
Tunnel TPID. This feature allows the switch to interoperate with third-
party switches that do not use the standard 0x8100 ethertype to
identify 802.1Q-tagged frames. For example, if 0x1234 is set as the
custom 802.1Q ethertype on a trunk port, incoming frames containing
that ethertype are assigned to the VLAN contained in the tag following
