[f-nsp] FWS24 QinQ?

[Tamas Csillag]

It looks like it won't accept interfaces:

telnet at FastIron(config)#tag-type
   HEX   Number
telnet at FastIron(config)#tag-type 9100
   <cr>
telnet at FastIron(config)#tag-type 9100 eth 1 to 2
Invalid input -> eth 1 to 2 ?


I'll try the following setup:

- connect 2 cat2950 boxes to the FWS, and config 9100 as tag-type.
- config the uplink as trunk on the catalysts, but untagged on the FWS
- configure vlans on the catalysts and the FWS

If the catalysts see each other through the FWS, but don't see the FWS 
itself, then it should be kinda QinQ, right?
