Date: January 2012
KernelVersion: 3.2
Contact: netdev@vger.kernel.org
Description:
Bitmask to allow forwarding of link local frames with address
01-80-C2-00-00-0X on a bridge device. Only values that set bits
not matching BR_GROUPFWD_RESTRICTED in net/bridge/br_private.h
allowed.
Default value 0 does not forward any link local frames.
Restricted bits:
0: 01-80-C2-00-00-00 Bridge Group Address used for STP
1: 01-80-C2-00-00-01 (MAC Control) 802.3 used for MAC PAUSE
2: 01-80-C2-00-00-02 (Link Aggregation) 802.3ad
Any values not setting these bits can be used. Take special
care when forwarding control frames e.g. 802.1X-PAE or LLDP.

Date: April 2008
KernelVersion: 2.6.26
Contact: netdev@vger.kernel.org

This attribute can be used by supplicant software to signal that
the device is not usable unless some supplicant-based
authentication is performed (e.g: 802.1x). 'link_mode' attribute
will also reflect the dormant state.
