I think i can safely say that my macvlan issues is completely resolved by disabling bridging on the dedicated nic 🎉

I also started seeing macvlan traces with 6.12.x, however i followed the advice in another thread to disable bridging for the nic running the dedicated Docker network and that seems to have resolved my traces. Right now the first post in this thread suggests enabling bridging, as i understand this has no benefits when the network is only used for Docker containers and disabling seems to have resolved my macvlan issues, so i think the suggestion should be to disable it.

Could someone explain network bridging to me? Maybe a use case of when you would want to use this feature. Right now i have 2 nics in my server, the main nic gets ip from DHCP and most containers run in bridge or host mode. Second NIC runs on a vlan and has a single container with static ip. Everything can talk to each other no problem. When does one need bridging?
