Hello!
I've been digging through metroe best practices, but all I can find is ISP points of views on creating a metroe WAN rather than from an internal business standpoint. My company is getting a metroe circuit in two weeks so I'm labbing up a WAN in GNS3 and my configurations aren't working. The MetroE will be a point-to-point connection. The main site will have the MetE circuit going into a Cisco 3750 and the remote site has a 3750 as well. I am going to use 802.1q trunks for the metroe traffic. My problem is I can ping the gateway for the vlan 3 at the remote site (192.168.201.1) from corporate, but I can't ping the PCs. This could be a GNS3 limitation or a screwed up Metro VLAN design all together. Any input here would be much appreciated. Here is the configuration for the Cisco 3750 at corporate:
