AFAIK, every implementation should have 802.1q ethertype (0x8100)... Why
not to stack packets deeper? And every outer packet should be a valid
802.1q packet. And every inner packet, if it contains another one, should
also be a valid 802.1q packet. The most inner should, of course, be
"plain" ethernet packet, I guess. AFAIK...
Some devices allow to set ethertype for outer packet -- linux could do so
too?
ps. I have been looking for Q-in-Q solution for linux and have found none.
Would be great, but... I'm not a programmer..
