Log message:
add bpe(4) or Backbone Provider Edge interfaces
Backbone refers to 802.1ah or 802.1Q Provider Backbone Bridges
(PBB), or mac-in-mac, which is like vlans except it completely
encapsulates the inner packet rather than just add a shim to it.
This removes the need for Backbone Core Bridges (ie, switches between
bpe instances) to know all the addresses on all the networks.
