[c-nsp] ME Switch Managment over Trunk Interfaces?

[cp]

Thanks for replying.  I'm trying to pass any(icmp at the moment) traffic
from a vlan interface through the trunk port via /30.  It's a /30 so no
return route needed.  Yes, I created vlan 106. Yes I shut / no shut
vlan106 interface. Yes, the device on the other side accepts tagged
frames. 

Other traffic such as non vlan interface traffic passes fine. There
isn't an arp or mac-address table entry for the remote IP of the /30,
which leaves me to believe traffic is being block by ME's overall
uni/eni/nni port-type design. Anyone  else have a similar experience?
When I switch the port from trunk to access mode and only test the vlan
106 it works fine.

Could you be a little bit more specific as to what exactly does not
work?

Some questions:

* Did you create VLAN 106?
* Did you enable Vlan interface (no shut)?
* Do you have a route back to your management station?
* Is the device on the other end configured to accept tagged frames?
