Hi Akhilesh,

If for whatever reason you're required to use q-in-q tunnels as currently
configured and you only need at least one of them operational at a time, you
might want to try adding L2-tunnel and allow STP through the q-in-q tunnel.
I don't know what your topology looks like, but it's possible by passing STP
a downstream device could learn of the multiple paths and block one. If you
need both paths up at all times, I'd try ether-channeling them together and
then doing q-in-q (if your requirement makes you use q-in-q). Otherwise,
just use an ether-channel.
