We document the MAC address used (to be able to find it through Google
or `git grep`). We also explain why the default is `fixed` and when it
should be changed to `local`.
.It Sy zero
All zero mac
.It Sy fixed
-An arbitrary fixed value (from a 3Com card)
+An arbitrary fixed value
+.Li ( 00:60:08:69:97:ef )
.It Sy local
Real mac with locally administered bit set. If the real mac already
has the locally administered bit set, default to the fixed value.
Default value for
.Nm bond-slave-src-mac-type
is
-.Nm fixed
+.Nm fixed .
+Some switches may complain about flapping MAC addresses. In thise case, switch to either
+.Sy zero
+or
+.Sy local .
+Note that there is a slight change that the address generated by
+.Sy local
+can be found somewhere else in your network. This is why this is not
+the default value.
