Tunnel
Notes:
■ You must enable STP on a device before enabling the BPDU tunnel function on it.
■ The BPDU tunnel function is only available to access ports.
■ To implement the BPDU tunnel function, the links between operator networks
must be trunk links.
■ As the VLAN VPN function is unavailable to the ports with 802.1x, GVRP, GMRP,
STP, or NTDP employed, the BPDU tunnel function is unavailable to these ports.
