Controlling macvlan interfaces in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, macvlan virtual interfaces can be created with this command:

# ip link add link eth0 dev macvlan0 type macvlan

Is there a way to make these permanent so ifup / a reboot will bring up the interface and can set up for DHCP?
