In juniper world you can run flexible-ethernet-services on a router interface and then have subinterfaces which have an IP addresses, or subinterfaces which can be part of a vpls(so logically acting as layer 2 port.
Is there a Cisco equivalent? In this use case, we have an MX router which is connecting to a Cisco 9300 switch via tengig fibre.
We are passing a number of vlans through from a carrier, passing through an MX (vpls) and going into the switch.
We also have a a requirement for this switch to be layer3, so will have a number of point to point routed interfaces connected to our MX routers.
Basically I'm looking for a solution which saves us running extra fibre from our MX as Ports are getting scarce. Ideally I would like to be able to have a switch port acting as a routed port with subinterfaces and also have one of those subinterfaces acting as a bog standard switch port
Impossible or not?
