Which Nexus? They very wildly in their capabilities.

It's entirely possible you can't do what you want on that platform. I'm 
not sure Q-in-Q termination is supported. It requires more of the 
equipment than Q-in-Q encapsulation.

Newer platforms use the "service instance" stuff for this, and IIRC the 
older ones were sub-int based w/ "encap dot1q 100 second-tag 200" but 
neither are present on our N7k w/ M1 linecards on NX-OS 6.2
