> VALE and pipe virtual ports
>
> As well as connections to a physical network interface the netmap API
> also supports connections to two different types for virtual ports, VALE
> switch ports and netmap pipe ports. VALE is a virtual switch implemented
> in the netmap kernel module, it works as a learning bridge and is designed
> to be used for connections between virtual machines. netmap pipes connect
> two virtual netmap ports with a crossover connection, they can be used in
> a setup where a master process works as a dispatcher towards slave
> processes.

Should some unique MAC address be manually defined for each VALE interface or
how are the packets addressed?
