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.
