Hi Jeroen - Untagged vs tagged exists.
Okay, just checking :) I did not really expect it to happen.
We don't have SONET to users at this point, but if we did I expect that we would have that as well. How likely it is depends on where you think circuit terminates. If the Link to the network is SONET (to a switch in another net) a VCG carrying GFP encoded ethernet might well be switched locally to a VLAN over Ethernet.
I would argue that that would be a different use-case then as it is described right now. Providing a connection from a user to another domain, where it will be further relayed is quite different from providing a e2e connection to users.
not from the point of view of the provider. it actually happens - as Guy points out. John
