[j-nsp] Double-tagging on EX

[Chris Kawchuk]

You're out of luck.

There's no way I've found to come in untagged and leave double-tagged; due to the EX's inability to handle 2 label operations per port. Same reason you can't support LDP MPLS L2CKT's (double-label) Martini CCCs, but you can support RSVP MPLS (single label) Kopella CCC's on the EX. (Someone pls. correct me here if I'm wrong!)

The only way is to come in untagged on ge-0/0/0, leave (single) tagged on ge-0/0/1, to a loopback/wrap-around cable connected back into ge-0/0/2 (which is now an incoming single tag), and leaving ge-0/0/3 (double tagged) by using the QinQ access-port option on ge-0/0/2 access -> ge-0/0/3 trunk.

Fun times.

Your mileage may vary on the EX8xxx series, since I believe those devices do support 2-label operations on a port.
