Hi Jay,
    I am not sure about the issue. But regarding BPDU..
  When a port is configured as an IEEE 802.1Q tunnel port, spanning-tree bridge protocol data unit (BPDU) filtering is automatically enabled on the interface.

  Thanks,

  Hi guys,

I have 4 switches:

customerswitch-switch1--switch2--switch3--switch4-customerswitch

Switch1-dot1qtunnel and SP vlan = 100
switch4-dot1qtunnel ans SP vlan = 100

l2pt cdp etc is configured..

The l2pt tunneling of cdp etc works.. But i also see the customer
mac-addresses on switch2.
What part am I missing. I think that switch2 should only see the SP vlan 100,
since the customer traffic (trunk or no trunk) should be encapsulated
(dot1q-in-dot1q)..

Should I use a bpdu filter on switch1 and switch4 towards the customerswitch
?

Thanks
