Re: tunneling CDP

Try this:

On each switch:

system mtu 1504 (Requires a Reload After This)

switch mode dot1q-tunnel
switch acc vlan x
l2protocol-tunnel cdp

Caveats:
-X can be any VLAN, but should be the same on both switches. Make sure that
all switches that are transit between two "end" switches know about VLANs -
like if they are all in transparent mode
-If you are doing Gig Ports on the switches, then, system mtu should be
"system mtu jumbo 1504" - jumbo affects only your gig ports
