[j-nsp] NSRP through 802.1Q trunks

[Stefan Fouant]

You'll be fine as long as you are not expecting the Netscreen to tag
the frames.  Otherwise, the HA interfaces (or pseudo-HA interfaces
that you've designated as such) look like regular Ethernet interfaces,
so as long as you've got a normal Ethernet handoff with end-to-end L2
connectivity between both pair of devices it should work.  Heck, I
suppose you could even run NSRP over an L2VPN if you wanted, not sure
why one would want to do so, but it's possible...

HTHs.
