Why an macvtap/macvlan based NIC can not be part of a linux bridge
Issue
A macvlan/macvtap based interface as part of a Linux bridge is limiting ingress traffic for other bridge ports.
Any other potential L2 clients in the same Linux bridge are not getting ingress traffic.
Environment
- all rhel versions
- a macvlan/macvtap based nic
- a Linux bridge having the macvlan/macvtap based nic as one of its ports
