Javi,
May be a diagram may help clarify the idea:
C1 C2
[ FR A ]----[ LCCE 1 ]------[ LCCE 2 ]----[ FR B ]
<------ L2TP HDLCoPW ---->
<------------- FR traffic ------->
In other words, the above set of devices will behave exactly
the same (bit for bit on cables C1 and C2) as if C1 and C2
were the same physical cable, eg:
[ FR A ]----..........................----[ FR B ]
<------------- FR traffic ------->
where the series of dots above represents the transparent PW
between LCCE 1 and LCCE 2.
Hope this makes sense,
-Ignacio
