In <option>vepa</option> mode, the new Virtual Ethernet Port
Aggregator (VEPA) mode, it assumes that the adjacent
bridge returns all frames where both source and
destination are local to the macvlan port, i.e. the
bridge is set up as a reflective relay. Broadcast

macvlan interfaces in VEPA mode, local frames are not
delivered locally, or <option>bridge</option>, it

provides the behavior of a simple bridge between
different macvlan interfaces on the same port. Frames
from one interface to another one get delivered directly

the MAC addresses, the macvlan bridge mode does not
require learning or STP like the bridge module does.

<option>passthru</option> mode, all frames received by
the physical interface are forwarded to the macvlan
interface. Only one macvlan interface in <option>passthru</option>
