Q-in-Q on ICX6650 - and "tag-profile"
Hello!

Does anyone have experience with...
- Running Q-in-Q on the ICX6650, with customer ports on the 6650 itself?
- A clear understanding of the "tag-profile" command?

The ICX6650 has no port regions, so the usual Brocade approach appears not
to be supported. The 6650 manual mentions that port regions are a
requirement - but that the 6650 only has one region! The "tag profile"
command is barely explained at all!

Any comments appreciated

Thanks!

No but do with the FWS which seems to use the same commands.

On the FWS, the tag-profile command at a global level creates another
EtherType profile that can be applied to individual ports as you wish by
using 'tag-profile enable' at the interface level (the tag-type command
works on port regions as far as I'm aware). To use QinQ on the FWS I've
done the following (where 0/1/1 is an uplink and 0/1/2 and 0/1/3 face
customers):

vlan 100 name "Customer A SVLAN"
tagged ethe 0/1/1
untagged ethe 0/1/2
!
vlan 200 name "Customer B SVLAN"
tagged ethe 0/1/1
untagged ethe 0/1/3
!
jumbo
aggregated-vlan
tag-profile 9100
!
interface ethernet 0/1/1
port-name uplink
!
interface ethernet 0/1/2
port-name customer-a
tag-profile enable
!
interface ethernet 0/1/3
port-name customer-b
tag-profile enable
!


aggregated-vlan and jumbo are enabled to ensure there's enough MTU - I've
ran in to issues without both of them enabled.
