Configuring L2PT Tunneling
This section describes the commands used to configure Layer 2 Protocol Tunneling
(L2PT).

(L2PT). Use the no form to restore the default setting.
Syntax
l2protocol-tunnel tunnel-dmac mac-address

upstream L2PT protocol packets (i.e, STP BPDUs) to this value, and forwards
them on to uplink ports. The MAC address must be specified in the format
xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx or xxxxxxxxxxxx.
The tunnel address can be any multicast address, except for the following:
■
IPv4 multicast addresses (with prefix 01-00-5E)
■
IPv6 multicast addresses (with prefix 33-33-33)
■
Addresses used by the spanning tree protocol.
