In linux kernel since version 2.6.24 (release Date: 2008-01-24)
This allows one to create virtual interfaces that map packets to
or from specific MAC addresses to a particular interface.
Macvlan devices can be added using the "ip" command from the
iproute2 package starting with the iproute2-2.6.23 release:
"ip link add link <real dev> [ address MAC ] [ NAME ] type macvlan"
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called macvlan.
