Sounds like you need to be communicating more with your 
colleagues :-).

This "Ethernet-to-Ethernet" thing just sounds like another 
fuss marketing term for some kind of Ethernet NNI setup. How 
you actually do it will depend on your control/data plane of 
choice (as well as your partners'):

	- MPLS
	- 802.1Q
	- L2TPv3

Getting standard implementations between vendors for 
anything other 802.1Q may be difficult in this area, but you 
should spend more time with your partner working out the 
details.

Cheers,

Mark.
