When a Layer 2 control PDU is received on a service provider edge port configured for
L2PT, the multicast destination MAC address is rewritten with the predefined multicast
tunnel MAC address of 01:00:0c:cd:cd:d0. The packet is transported across the provider
network transparently to the other end of the tunnel and the original multicast destination
MAC address is restored when the packet is transmitted.
If a packet is received on a tunnel interface that already has a destination multicast MAC
address of 01:00:0c:cd:cd:d0, the port enters an error state and is shut down. To clear
the error condition, the administrator must enter the clear error mac-rewrite
interface interface-name command.
L2PT can be configured on the customer edge aggregated Ethernet interface using
mac-rewrite CLI command at the [edit protocols layer2-control] hierarchy level.
The destination MAC address used by different protocols is listed in Table 41 on page 438:
