[systemd-devel] nspawn, ipvlan and documentation

[Ede Wolf]

Hello,


I would like to confirm, wether I am reading the nspawn documentation 
correctly or wether I am confusing things.
For ipvlan, it reads:

'Create an "ipvlan" interface of the specified Ethernet network 
interface and add it to the container.'

I understand this the way, that the equivalent to:

ip link add link eth0 name ifipvlan type ipvlan

is being done by nspawn. So I proivide the eth0 interface as the 
argument to --network-ipvlan=

This kind of works, however, the interface inside the container always 
has mode L2.

In case, my interpretation so far is correct, how do I specify the 
ipvlan mode (L3S instead of the default L2)?

Or is my only chance to create an ipvlan mode l3 interface on the host 
and assign it to the container using the --network-interface=ifipvlan 
switch?

Thanks

Ede
