Dec 31, 2002 · 802.1ad - Provider Bridges. This amendment to IEEE Std 802.1Q-1998 is intended to develop an architecture and bridge protocols, compatible and interoperable with existing Bridged Local Area Network protocols and equipment, to provide separate instances of the MAC services to multiple independent users of a Bridged Local Area Network in a manner ...
User network interface (UNI) ports of a provider bridge interface with customer devices and have a specific set of requirements defined by the IEEE 802.1ad standard. These requirements enable provider bridges to have the same functionality as Layer 2 protocol tunneling (L2PT) and Q-in-Q (QnQ) bridges.

IEEE 802.1ad Support on Provider Bridges. First Published: April 19, 2010. Last Updated: May 26, 2011. Service provider bridges (also called provider bridges) allow devices in a service provider network to transparently carry the Layer 2 control frames of a customer.
Trunk. To configure IEEE 802.1ad support, you should understand the following concepts: How Provider Bridges Work. Guidelines for Handling BPDU. Interoperability of QinQ and Dot1ad. Provider bridges pass the network traffic of many customers, and each customer's traffic flow must be isolated from one another.
