is there any other method to make it ?
Or its impossible on Summit5i/Alpine at all ?
I feel like these switches can not use 2 ethertypes paralelly..
What I want to do one day is to connect RedBack BRAS via Extreme "core"
to edge devices (Dlin DES-3028) that will terminate QinQ circuits on
physical ports, so that every subscribers will have it's own QinQ vlan
towards BRAS.
