If you can't tag the native in your equipment create a dummy VLAN and use it as native on the link and all VLANs will be tagged. If you know the customer will be using more VLANs later on Q-in-Q might be a good solution or you will have to transport a lot of VLANs in your network and they might collide with other customers etc. /Daniel
