If I understand "L2PT" right here, this is the classic "EoMPLS" (in Cisco language) or "CCC" thing, as in "transparently connecting exactly *two* ethernet ports together, over MPLS or L2TPv3 or ... transport"? If yes, is this something people do over EVPN? I'm asking because I'm trying to understand options - we see EVPN as a tool for "I need a learning bridge in the middle, with more than two endpoints", while EoMPLS/CCC is "I want to connect exactly two endpoints, and the middleboxes must be fully transparent, including STP forwarding". gert -- "If was one thing all people took for granted, was conviction that if you feed honest figures into a computer, honest figures come out.
