Sometimes network providers do not allow multicast communication. In this instance, vxlans need to be configured using multiple unicast endpoints. This is done by appending additional zero MAC entries to the fdb.

Please add support for configuring these in netdev.

I would expect to configure it such as:

[VXLAN]
Id=42
Endpoint=10.0.0.1
Endpoint=10.1.0.1
Endpoint=10.2.0.1

since it's a bridge fdb I have added to the [BridgeFDB] section also Please see the example conf how to apply to vxlan.
