[EX/QFX] Example - Configuring VLAN translation by using ELS on Junos OS

Example Topology

Vlan.10 --> 10.0.0.1/24                                          ge-0/0/0.10  --> 10.0.0.2/24
Vlan.20 --> 20.0.0.1/24                                          ge-0/0/0.220 --> 20.0.0.2/24

If SW-A pings SW-B on vlan10, the ping works without any translation.
If SW-A pings SW-B on vlan20, then vlan20's traffic will be translated to vlan220 by EX4300.
The return traffic from SW-B on vlan220 will be translated back to vlan20 while egressing to SW-A by EX4300.
