QinQ Traffic - Losing Management

I am using a netonix to power an AF-5X HD radio that has a VLAN for management on it.

The customer on the far end of this radio link is needing to be able to pass QinQ traffic

So far the only way they are able to pass through multiple vlans, is to use the "D" (Double Tagging) VLAN function on the port going to the radio.
However, we are losing our management access to the radios when we do that.

Any thoughts on anything else we can do?

Your going to need to draw a diagram showing the switch, whats feeding the switch, the AF radio, the radio on the other end and what VLANs you want where.

Be as detailed as you can in your drawing.

Please do not use a piece of paper and pen and take a picture use something like MS Paint and be somewhat neat

Netonix don't allow to choose whitch vlan to encapsulate, it's a 1:any configuration only.

If you have 2 free ports on the switch, I would try the following, connect those together, one with T on and management VID and the other with D on Q-in-Q VID.

Sorry for the major delay.
Here's a rough outline as to how it is looking so far.

Their traffic can pass when set to "D" on their port, but we lose access to our managment Vlans for our radios.

The 2nd AF5X-HD goes to another site. The VLAN is tagged from devices after that until it hits the customers other end of their Layer 2 connection.
