Emne: Re: [c-nsp] Cheapest Cisco desktop switch that supports   Q-in-Q/802.1Q 
VLAN encapsulation/double-tagged VLANs/Stacked VLANs

Thanks for explaining the semantical differences.  What I'm looking to do is
the termination -- wouldn't the ME3400 do the trick?

Your last sentence doesn't make sense here.

"Q-in-Q" generally refers to *tunneling* one VLAN trunk through an L2
network by adding an extra VLAN tag in front of the existing VLAN tag.

"encapsulation dot1q x second-dot1q y" is used to *terminate* a dual
tagged VLAN connection (typically an IP termination). This is very
different from *tunneling*.

So - do you want tunneling or termination? I don't believe there are
any Cisco desktop switches which can IP terminate a dual tagged VLAN
connection. There are, of course, plenty of desktop switches which
will do 802.1Q tunneling.
