Not sure I follow you exactly, but put this in your
bong and smoke it:

Some MAN Ethernet suppliers (like Embarq in Las Vegas)
have two levels of service: basic & enhanced. With
basic you can not do trunking. With Enhanced you can
trunk through the Embarq cloud and pass multiple VLANs
site to site.

Just a thought.
