Hi Simon,
you can also do port-to-subint on the Sup720 using ethernet interworking:
one end:
interface TenGigabitEthernet3/2
xconnect y.y.y.y 1 encapsulation mpls
end
the other:
interface TenGigabitEthernet4/2.2010
encapsulation dot1Q 2010
xconnect x.x.x.x 1 pw-class atom-eth-iw
end
The magic is in the pw-class atom-eth-iw:
pseudowire-class atom-eth-iw
encapsulation mpls
interworking ethernet
We're using that in production and it works just fine.
Cheers,
Chris

In simple terms (and I apologise if this is fixed in Sup2T, as most of my
experience has been on the Sup720), with the 6500/6800 platform, you can only
do port-to-port or subint-to-subint VPWS, but not port-to-subint (which you can
on the more capable boxes, or with the ES cards on the 6500/6800).

Hi Simon
can you detail more "ASR9k can be more flexible on EoMPLS (VPLS) than 6807" ?

Discussing a new architecture of DCI (Data Center Interconnection), Cisco

From pricing point of view there is a quite big difference (win 6807), from
feature point of view Cisco says the difference is "only" the number of
mac-addresses supported and the sw modularity.
Can anybody help in digging more the "technical" difference ?
I'm going through much the same at the moment, and settling on 6807, largely
from a price perspective.
ASR9k is (today) a more capable box for routing - particularly if you want
higher bandwidths. ASR9k has 100G ports today. 6807 only has 40G. ASR9k can
be more flexible on EoMPLS (VPLS) than 6807.
6807 has a lot of potential (880G per slot), but it's not supported by either
Supervisors or Linecards that are available today (current limit is 80G/slot).
