hi, all
nwfilter has many rules which depends on mac of vm, but i find  the mac address inside vm is different from mac outside of vm.
outside mac:
vnet0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:54:00:71:15:7B ,
inside mac:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 52:54:00:71:15:7B ,virtio 
 
why?
 i am afraid that  nwfilter use the wrong one.   
how nwfilter chooses mac? and what is the usage of vnet0's mac?
 
thanks very much.
