Abstract
In some implementations, a first PE network device may receive, from a first CE network device, traffic that includes at least an IP header. The first PE network device may determine whether the first PE network device is to remove the IP header, or the IP header and a UDP header included in the traffic, from the traffic. The first PE network device may send, to one or more second PE network devices, the traffic, wherein the first PE network device, prior to sending the traffic, updates the traffic by removing the IP header, or the IP header and a UDP header, when the first PE network device makes a removal determination, and wherein the first PE network device, prior to sending the traffic, does not update the traffic when the first PE network device does not make a removal determination.
