macvlan; operation not supported?

[talondnb]

Has anyone managed to successfully launch a container using macvlan? I've spent hours trying this with different container releases and I keep getting:

docker: Error response from daemon: failed to create the macvlan port: operation not supported.

Running latest hypriot on a Pi 3B. Any advice welcome!

I've managed to figure out that I need to enable experimental features:

can you solve this problem? I have the same problem with ipvlan and also experimental feature is on.

Yes, I'm running macvlan on my unifi-controller docker container.

Here's my docker-compose.

version: "3.6"

services:
  unifi-controller:
    image: linuxserver/unifi-controller:latest
    container_name: unifi-controller
    networks:
      default:
        ipv4_address: 10.10.1.10
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - MEM_LIMIT=1024M #optional
    volumes:
      - ./config:/config
    ports:
      - 3478:3478/udp
      - 10001:10001/udp
      - 8080:8080
      - 8081:8081
      - 8443:8443
      - 8843:8843
      - 8880:8880
      - 6789:6789
    restart: unless-stopped

networks:
  # Define the default network
  default:
    external:
      name: macvlan1

And here's my portainer network settings for macvlan (sorry not sure where I would see this in CLI as I set this up through portainer.

thank you for your attention. you don't have the swarm cluster, isn't it? how your problem solves?

[talondnb]

No, not using a swarm.

I simply wanted my unifi container to be on the same physical segment as my other devices and not a virtual segment. This worked out fine for me.
