What does 'unknown unicast filtering' mean/do, exactly?
The semantics of BR_FLOOD are on egress: all unicast packets with an
unknown destination that are received on ports from this bridging domain
can be flooded towards port X if that port has flooding enabled.
When I hear "filtering", I imagine an ingress setting, am I wrong?
