[f-nsp] Assigning traffic to different VLLs based on the inner QinQ tag

This is a very interesting question. Have you received any feedback on it ?
One very stupid way of doing it would be to untagg towards the XMR or Loop a
XMR interface.
I know Redback and Ericsson equipment can do this as well.

Curious if you received any feedback on this matter.

Regards Andreas
