Fun fact - ubuntu running under hyper-v doesn't like macvlan

Seems to be an issue. The containers get ips under the right network, and can talk to each other, but for me it’s a real network provided by my unifi USG, where the host can ping the router on .1, but none of the created containers can.

I’ve tried turning on promiscuous mode, and allowing mac spoofing in hyper-v.

But if I try the same set up with a raspberry pi, then it works as I expect.

docker network create -d macvlan --subnet=192.168.40.0/24 --attachable --gateway=192.168.40.1 -o parent=eth0.40 vlan40

docker run -it --rm --ip=192.168.40.50 --net=vlan40 alpine /bin/sh

eth0.40: flags=4419<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        inet6 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  prefixlen 64  scopeid 0x20<link>
        ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx txqueuelen 0  (Ethernet)
        RX packets 0  bytes 0 (0.0 B)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 44  bytes 4320 (4.3 KB)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

So the interface is being created, but for the life of me can’t get it working on either of 2 hyper-v hosts.

Hello, PLEASE HELP. Did you get this resolved??
I am having the same issue with MACVLAN and IPVLAN.
I am also using Hyper-V. It seems like its an issue with how Hyper-V sets up the network.

i dont believe so. I would have moved it to a standalone host.
