Hi ,

I guess Ethernet over MPLS will not take as input atm standard interface 
. Different type of encapsulation .
Maybe sth like LanEmulation for ATM - LANE,  will be the the 
straightforward solution , but its very complicated (for me) and don't 
think is possible on c7200 routers
Workaround ? -  if you manage to do a bridge-group between atm pvc 
subinterf and interface vlan ( of etherenet type) -> then from intf vlan 
you can do  xconnect to another pe router, over mpls..
// good luck
