Hi there,
I'd like to connect Ethernet to HDLC by using AToM any-to-any method.
The topology is as below
L3 Switch (CE) ----- C7600 (ES+20 : Ethernet) ---- MPLS Cloud ---- C7200 (PA-8T-V.35 : Serial) ---- C2600 (CE)
as you see, on the left side, the AC(Attachment Circuit) is Ethernet, on the right side, the AC is Serial.
I know that it is possble to connect between Ethernet and PPP. But I'd like to connect HDLC from Ethernet not PPP.
if I don't use AToM any to any, How can I offer Layer 2 connection to two CE having different interface type (Ethernet and HDLC)
Thanks in advance
Best Regards.

Hi,
If you use IP interworking option, it should work.

Hi
I know the IP interworking option.
But according to MPLS document I've read, there is no option to connect Ethernet and HDLC.
(FYI, I've attached the table)
Only there is a option between Ethernet and HDLC.
Could you show me how to connect beween Ethernet and HDLC or document link?
Thanks.

Sorry, I replied too fast and should have done my homework better ;-)
I confirmed it's not supported either with AToM or L2TPv3. Your best chance would be to change the encaps from HDLC to PPP.

I can know that it is not possible. thanks to your confirmation
