Your regional can assign you with another VLAN ID, say 2345, for this connection and tunnel VLAN ID 1234 through this connection so that you can reach [wiki:GeniSite/NLR NLR] with your VLAN ID intact. Depending on the situation, your regional may do this transparently or your campus may need to be involved.107 108 ''Your campus and your partner campus would likely be using the same VLAN ID in this scenario''.109 96 110 97 === VLAN Translation === … … 115 102 '''VLAN Translation Options in Backbone Networks''':: 116 103 * For [wiki:GeniSite/Internet2#VLANTranslation Internet 2] 117 * For [wiki:GeniSite/NLR#VLANTranslation NLR] 118 104 119 105 120 106 = Layer 3 Connections = … … 123 109 == Connections == 124 110 '''Backbone''':: 125 Your campus may have access to a backbone Layer 3 connection such as [wiki:GeniSite/NLR#PacketNet NLR's PacketNet].111 Your campus may have access to a backbone Layer 3 connection. 126 112 127 113 '''Commodity Internet'''::
