remove the S-VLAN tags from all packets entering the circuit. A device or network is said
to be S-VLAN-aware, if the packets passed through it contain the S-VLAN tag configured
on the subinterface. Similarly, if the S-VLAN tag is not configured on the subinterface,
the device is said to be S-VLAN-unaware of the packet reaching it because the S-VLAN
tag is not passed to it.
A particular S-VLAN tag that is identified as the service-delimiting tag is removed from
the incoming Ethernet frame from the CE device before it is sent on the pseudowires. In
this release, only raw mode operation is supported on the S-VLAN subinterfaces of PE
routers. Therefore, scenarios in which the S-VLAN tag is made available to the MPLS
network and the S-VLAN tag is not advertised to the the CE device are not supported.
Depending on how Ethernet raw mode is configured on PE devices and the configuration
of the S-VLAN subinterface on CE-facing devices, a device in the Maritni circuit can be
either S-VLAN-aware or S-VLAN-unaware.
Figure 124 on page 554 shows a Martini circuit deployment in which the CE-side devices
on either side of the network send and receive Ethernet frames. The packets reaching
the CE-side devices can be S-VLAN-aware or not. The MPLS network might also be
S-VLAN-aware or not, which means that S-VLAN tags might or might not be sent over
the MPLS cloud.

The cases in which the MPLS network is S-VLAN-aware, but the CE-side device is not
S-VLAN-aware, are supported because the Ethernet pseudowire operates in tagged
mode. When the pseudowire is configured for raw mode, only two cases are supported:
whether the CE-side device is S-VLAN-aware or not aware.
Table 101 on page 554 describes the different scenarios in which the Martini circuit shown
in Figure 124 on page 554 can be deployed depending on whether the various network
segments are S-VLAN-aware or not.
