7.2  QinQ termination configuration 
QinQ  is  a  technology  of  packet  transmission  with  two  802.1q  tags.  The  technology  is  used  for 
extending quantity of VLANs in data networks. 802.1q header, which is closer to payload, is an Inner Tag 
also known as C-VLAN (Custimer VLAN). 802.1q header,  which is comes before C-VLAN, is an Outer Tag 
also known as S-VLAN (Service VLAN). Using of double tags in Ethernet frames is describing by 802.1ad 
protocol. 
Objective: Configure 192.168.1.1/24 subnet termination (Combinations C-VLAN: 741, S-VLAN: 828) 
on gigabitethernet 1/0/1 physical interface. 
Solution: 
Enable 802.1ad protocol support on physical interface: 
esr(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 
esr(config-if-gi)# switchport dot1q ethertype egress stag 802.1ad 
esr(config-if-gi)# exit 
Create subinterface for  S-VLAN: 828  
esr(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1.828 
esr(config-subif)# exit 
Create QinQ  subinterface for  C-VLAN: 741  
esr(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1.828.741 
esr(config-qinq-if)# ip address 192.168.1.1/24 
esr(config-qinq-if)# exit 
Configuration changes will take effect when the configuration is applied: 
esr-1000# commit 
Configuration has been successfully committed 
esr-1000# confirm 
Configuration has been successfully confirmed 
7.3  AAA configuration 
AAA (Authentication, Authorization, Accounting) is used for description of access provisioning and 
control.  
  Authentication is a matching of a person (request) for the existing account in the security 
system. Performed by the login and password.  
  Authorization (authorization, privilege verification, access level verification) is a matching of 
the existing account in the system (passed authentication) and specific privileges.  
  Accounting (accounting)is a monitoring of user connection or changes made by the user. 
 
Objective:  Configure  authentication  for  users  being  connected  via  Telnet  and  RADIUS 
(192.168.16.1/24).
