Specifies how the forwarding function shall handle unicast frames when it does not know what interface to use for reaching a destination. auto(1). Equivalent to `mac(2)' if the forwarding function is connected to at least three interfaces, otherwise equivalent to `nomac(3)'. If the device does not support `mac(2)', then `auto(1)' is always equivalent to `nomac(3)'. mac(2). The forwarding function will learn what interfaces to use for a destination. This is done by looking at the source MAC address on received frames. When the forwarding function has learned what interface to use, it will forward the frame on that interface only. Learning is also specified for each interface and traffic class with ethIfQueueLearning. nomac(3). The forwarding function will forward the frame on all its interfaces.
