The SwitchinMatrix that does the splitting would be contained in the topology for domain B. The domainA would just describe its edge port, and the link to the other side. (With most likely the adaptations into Ethernet)
Yes, now I see where I made a mistake in my description, my apologies. The difficulty with this situation is that domain B handles the connection, and the splitting of the VLANs towards domains C and D. But domain B does not participate in the dynamic switching or topology description. In some ways this is similar to a trans-atlantic cable situation. You hand off the connection to a carrier in Amsterdam, and it comes out somewhere at the other end in MAN LAN, but you have no idea how exactly. Jeroen.
