MACVLAN devices are typically used for applications such as VRR/VRRP that
require a second MAC address (virtual). These devices have a corresponding
SVI/VLAN device -
root@TORC11:~# ip addr show vlan1002
39: vlan1002@bridge: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 9152 qdisc noqueue master vrf1 state UP group default
link/ether 00:02:00:00:00:2e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet6 2001:aa:1::2/64 scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
root@TORC11:~# ip addr show vlan1002-v0
40: vlan1002-v0@vlan1002: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 9152 qdisc noqueue master vrf1 state UP group default
link/ether 00:00:5e:00:01:01 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet6 2001:aa:1::a/64 metric 1024 scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
root@TORC11:~#
The macvlan device is used primarily for RX (VR-IP/VR-MAC). And TX is via
the SVI. To acheive that functionality the macvlan network's metric
is set to a higher value.
Zebra currently ignores the devaddr metric sent by the kernel and hardcodes
it to 0. This commit eliminates that hardcoding. If the devaddr metric
is available (METRIC_MAX) it is used for setting up the connected route
otherwise we fallback to the dev/interface metric.
Setting the macvlan metric to a higher value ensures that zebra will always
select the connected route on the SVI (and subsequently use it for next hop
resolution etc.) -

FRR currently supports the following protocols:
- BGP
- OSPFv2
- OSPFv3
- RIPv1
- RIPv2
- RIPng
- IS-IS
- PIM-SM/MSDP
- LDP
- BFD
- Babel
- EIGRP (alpha)
- NHRP (alpha)
Installation & Use
Packages are available for various distributions on our releases page.
Snaps are also available here.
Instructions on building and installing from source for supported platforms may be found here.
Once installed, please refer to the user guide for instructions on use.
