L2tpv3 (xconnect commands) or bridge-group (bridge irb) can do this.

We used to bridge some non-routeable stuff.

I'm sure the SP IE's here have 10 more ways to do it (pseudowires, atom,
gmpls)... gents?

Subject: Tricky Layer 2 Question

Two devices speaking to one another via a non-routable protocol. One of
the devices has to be moved across a frame connection from the other.
How would I go about allowing the two devices to speak at L2 across a
wan link? I had thought about using NAT or proxy-arp, but if it is a
non-routeable protocol, they may be talking MAC address to MAC address.
