Erm, this sounds backwards to me. I am the guy who needs to stack some - possibly already stacked - vlans at the remote end, in the data centre, and then feed this into the pipe (easy), and decapsulate multiple times at home, and encapsulate everything at home before sending it out through the wan pipe again, to be decapsulated in the data centre and distributed to various other people there. -- Kind regards, --Toni++
