As this TPID is at the same byte offset as the original !EtherType field, it is common to refer to this field as the !EtherType field when discussing VLANs. The image below illustrates this distinction. Each tag adds 4 Bytes of data to the Ethernet frame. … … 127 127 === QinQ Tagging === 128 128 '''Purpose'''[[BR]] 129 Verify that a given DUT's QinQ port sends double-tagged QinQ frames in the expected format. For switches to understand that the trunking mechanism is a QinQ VLAN trunk the Ethernet's Header must contain the appropriate QinQ header field type indication (0x8 a88).129 Verify that a given DUT's QinQ port sends double-tagged QinQ frames in the expected format.

This implies that the Switch on the other side of the trunk must be a service VLAN; sending the VLAN as a "normal" VLAN isn't possible in this configuration. This implies that A port is either dedicated for normal dot1q or qinq - but can't do both.387 VLAN 128 is capable of being sent out port 1, however it's tagged type is "0x88a8" (service VLAN), "not 0x8100" (customer VLAN).
