Provider switching: This is also known as Q-in-Q switching. Ports connected to subscribers are VLAN unaware,
members of one VLAN, and set up with this unique Port VLAN ID. Ports connected to the service provider are VLAN
aware, members of multiple VLANs, and set up to tag all frames. Untagged frames received on a subscriber port are
forwarded to the provider port with a single VLAN tag. Tagged frames received on a subscriber port are forwarded to
the provider port with a double VLAN tag.
VLAN ID
VLAN ID is a 12-bit field specifying the VLAN to which the frame belongs.
