Craig, Apart from other suggestions, I think you also can do this: 1)Put ip address at both ends of the DS3; 2) Esbalish tunnels for each of your vlan using different loopback interfaces; 3)put the vlans in their respective tunnles using brigde-group; 4) use rate limit based on the soure of loopback interface of the tunnel to control how much each tunnel(vlan) can use the DS3; Not sure wether you want to turn on the IRB, probably not. Of course this is preety urgly using layer 3 to solve layer2 problem, but just off the top of my head.

Has anyone had experience bridging multiple VLANs accross a clear-channel DS3? I have 2 3640's populated with 1 FE and 1 HSSI. They are connected
by
a DS3. I've tried a couple of different configs, including turning one router into a frame swich and building a PVC for each VLAN, but the bridging didn't seem to work. I've tried running SDE directly between the HSSI ports...and that didn't seem to work. I'm up a against a deadline here, and would greatly appreciate any help you can offer. I've also tried a couple of IRB configs.
Thanks in advance, craig
