Matthew,

You won't like it but there is no such concept as Subinterface on the Netiron Serie.

You have multiple Workarounds.

a) Use different VLAN from your upstream

Real Workarounds

b) Use the 802.3ah metro Features and S-VLAN type change

c) Use a loopback cable, local-vll, rewrite vlan features.

Maybe there are new possibilities since 5.6.

Regards Erich

For example, on the ASR we'd have gi1/1 going to provider X and gi1/2 going to provider Y with managed ethernet circuits delivered on the same VLAN tags. The config would look something like the example below and this wouldn't be an issue as vlan tag 10 on gi1/1 would be separate from vlan tag 10 on gi1/2.

What are people doing in this situation to keep vlan 10 from e1/1 separate from vlan 10 on e1/2?
