A Big Problem:QinQ interfaces between two PFSense

Hi our hierarchy like this:

pc1–--(0/0(Member VLAN163))SW(0/23(Member vlan163-PortModeTrunk))–------(em0:172.16.01)(vlan163:172.16.0.2\L3[DHCP POOL])PF1(em1:192.168.56.102)–---WAN–----(em1:192.168.56.103)PF2(vlan163\L2)(em0:172.16.0.3)–-----(0/23(Member vlan163-PortModeTrunk))SW(0/0(Member VLAN163))–---pc2

I want when the QinQ connection is established,computer2 get the ip from the DHCP Pool on PF1.How can i do this?
How it is supposed to be my configuration about QinQ?

That something can be technically done might be not even the best to realize it really.
So if I had to be true fully to you I would aware of such a set up like yours.

In service networks from TIER1,2,3 or smaller or locally homed ISPs this could be done
and is often offered as a service but based on totally other hardware devices and on top
of this surely based on faster and more stable connections or uplinks.

You as a company are using a customer network but this named above carriers or ISPs
are driving this through their service network and then it is more stable and on this stage
it makes sense.

QinQ VLANs are Layer2 based and the entire WAN through the Internet will be a routet way
so it could really be, that you will be having success with a L2TP/IPSec VPN connection or
a BGP connection betwenn this two points, but I personally would recommend the following.

Let the QinQ VLANs end at there WAN end point that might be the border firewall, border router
or a gateway at a network edge or node and than connect the both networks over one or more VPN
or BGP connections and thats it.
