Problem configuring EAPS+MAC-IN-MAC with EXTREME NETWORK devices.

Hi,

Im trying to setup a lab environtment where there are 2 EAPS rings connected together with LACP link between 2 MetroCore Devices. They transmit customer traffic from Workgroups 1 and 3 (WG-1 and WG3). This is done entirely as L2-traffic. EAPS rings are done with Q-in-Q and MetroCore-link is done as MAC-in-MAC (a 3rd tag, sometimes referred as PBB)

Problems arise when im trying to configure port 1:3 and 1:4 at MetroCore1 to untagged state. That breaks my EAPS ring, but i have to have those ports untagged in order to apply 3rd tag to the packets in MAC-in-MAC-phase.

Extreme's manuals are very, very unclear and uninformative and googling hasn't helped me either. I could say you are my last hope.

Here is the network topology:
