REVISION SUMMARY The ADD message is sent by the VF to request that a MAC address filter be added to the Fortville switch to direct packets destined to that MAC be routed to the VF's VSI. The DEL message deletes a MAC address filter that was previously established. This has security implications in a VM environment (a VM could listen in on packets that it's not entitled to see), so the VF has to have this capability enabled on it.
