stripRif (2) | The routing information field will be stripped before it is |
| forwarded. This allows |
| Ethernet) IP hosts to communicate transparently. |
passBoth (3) | Both the original |
| transparent equivalent are forwarded. This provides the |
| maximum connectivity, but adds some network traffic. |
none (4) | No translation will be set and the ARP frame will be |
| bridged as is. This is the same as setting the translation to |
| pass RIF. None is the default value for this option. |
