    Hi Horatiu

    Why do you need these restrictions. The HW bridge should be able to
    learn that a destination MAC address can be reached via the SW
    bridge. The software bridge can then forward it out the correct
    interface.

    Or are you saying your hardware cannot learn from frames which come
    from the CPU?
