Rewriting a VLAN Tag and Adding a New Tag

On Ethernet IQ, IQ2 and IQ2-E interfaces, on MX Series router Gigabit Ethernet, Tri-Rate Ethernet copper, and 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, on aggregated Ethernet interfaces using Gigabit Ethernet IQ2 and IQ2-E or 10-Gigabit Ethernet PICs on MX Series routers, and on Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces on EX Series switches, to replace the outer VLAN tag of the incoming frame with a user-specified VLAN tag value, include the swap-push statement in the input VLAN map or output VLAN map:
