Abstract
Example implementations relate to a bridge port extender. For example, a bridge port extender may include a processor. The processor may receive an Ethernet frame from a network bridge, where the Ethernet frame includes an encapsulated portion and an unencapsulated portion, and where the unencapsulated portion includes an E-tag. The processor may remove the E-tag from the unencapsulated portion to form a modified Ethernet frame. The processor may transmit the modified Ethernet frame to a client device based on the E-tag.
