Explanation

MAC-based forwarding (MBF) can be used to avoid multiple route/ARP lookups and to avoid asymmetrical packet flows. MBF caches the MAC address of the upstream router that forwarded the client request to the appliance. When a reply is received, it is passed through to the same router that sent the client request without going through any route lookup.
