+- Containers attached to a macvlan network cannot communicate with the host
+  directly, this is a restriction in the Linux kernel. If you need communication
+  between the host and the containers, you can connect the containers to a
+  bridge network as well as the macvlan. It is also possible to create a
+  macvlan interface on the host with the same parent interface, and assign it
+  an IP address in the Docker network's subnet.

 ### Use an IPvlan instead of Macvlan
 
-In the above example, you are still using a L3 bridge. You can use `ipvlan`
-instead, and get an L2 bridge. Specify `-o ipvlan_mode=l2`.
+An `ipvlan` network created with option `-o ipvlan_mode=l2` is similar
+to a macvlan network. The main difference is that the `ipvlan` driver
+doesn't assign a MAC address to each container, the layer-2 network stack
+is shared by devices in the ipvlan network. So, containers use the parent
+interface's MAC address.
+
+The network will see fewer MAC addresses, and the host's MAC address will be
+associated with the IP address of each container.
+
+The choice of network type depends on your environment and requirements.
+There are some notes about the trade-offs in the [Linux kernel
+documentation](https://docs.kernel.org/networking/ipvlan.html#what-to-choose-macvlan-vs-ipvlan).

+### Masquerade or SNAT for outgoing packets
+
+By default, if NAT is enabled for a bridge network, outgoing packets from
+containers are masqueraded. This means the source address of packets
+leaving the Docker host is changed to an address on the host interface
+the packet is sent on.
+
+Masquerading can be disabled for a user-defined bridge network by using
+the `com.docker.network.bridge.enable_ip_masquerade` driver option when
+creating the network. For example:
+```console
+$ docker network create mybridge \
+  -o com.docker.network.bridge.enable_ip_masquerade=false ...
+```
+
+To use a specific source address for outgoing packets for a user-defined
+network, instead of letting masquerading select an address, use options
+`com.docker.network.host_ipv4` and `com.docker.network.host_ipv6` to
+specify the Source NAT (SNAT) address to use. The
+`com.docker.network.bridge.enable_ip_masquerade` option must
+be `true`, the default, for these options to have any effect.
