Architecture Requirements
S-PEs MAY only support switching PWs of the same PW type.
The PWs MUST remain transparent to the P-routers. A P-router is not an S-PE or an U-PE from the MS-PW architecture viewpoint.
The MS-PWs MUST use the same encapsulation modes specified for SS-PWs.
S-PEs MAY change the type or encapsulation mode
A MS-PW SHOULD be able to pass across PSNs of all technologies specified by PWE3 for SS-PWs.
Both directions of a PW segment MUST terminate on the same S-PE/U-PE.
