Currently we have metro ethernet termination on a cisco 6500 using the following config
gig0/1
switcport
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
This terminates multiple customer's metro lines on the a trunk that is supplied to us by the provider as an NNI.
We then have SVI vlans for each customer.
When looking at the ASR 1001-x, yes i know its not a switch, there is no way to create a trunk interface but is there another way to terminate an NNI which will handle multiple customer metro-e lines ? The only thing i see is to create a service instance and enable sub dot1q interfaces. Since i cannot test this right now i have no idea if this will work.
on the ASR:
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/0/3
no ip address
negotiation auto
service instance 10 ethernet
!
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/0/3.303
encapsulation dot1Q 303
ip addr x.x.x.x
!
Can anyone confirm if this is possible or if there is another way to configure metro ethernet NNI trunks on an ASR?
thanks Paul

As per your description that should work. here is reference guide and examples :

Subinterfaces with the dot1q tag are how I've always terminated this scenario. Should work like a treat :)

so this is possible on an ASR? do you have config examples.
