[c-nsp] Layer 2 local switching for QinQ circuits

Hi Guys,

Worst case (slightly temporary) solution would be to carefully configure an 
exit for the QinQ domain into the 802.1q domain and put a crossover cable 
from one port to another.

Unless of course you have a big overlap of regular vlan's.

cheers
