Hello, I would like to create rootful containers with static IPv4 and IPv6 addresses that are part of my network (containers that somehow act as physical devices on my network). From what I understand in the documentation [1], the macvlan driver should be my preferred option with netavark. [1] https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/docs/tutorials/basic_networki... My problem is that I get an error when starting a container attached to a macvlan network created with an IPv6 subnet:
Error: netavark: failed configure macvlan: IO error: failed to add route: Invalid argument (os error 22)
FYI, as long as the maclan network is created without IPv6 subnet, I can create new podman containers without error.

Maybe I'm missing something important from the documentation. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. -- Laurent Meunier <laurent@deltalima.net>
