Understanding MacVLAN interfaces
The first feature we'll be looking at is MacVLAN. In this recipe, we'll be implementing MacVLAN outside of Docker to gain a better understanding of how it works. Understanding how MacVLAN works outside of Docker will be critical in understanding how Docker consumes MacVLAN. In the next recipe, we'll walk through the Docker network driver implementation of MacVLAN.
Getting ready
In this recipe, we'll be using two Linux hosts (net1 and net2) to demonstrate MacVLAN functionality. Our lab topology will look as follows:
It is assumed that the hosts are in a base configuration and each host has two network interfaces. The ...
