Hello, Heres answering my own question partially. Since the bridge which is after all a virtual interface takes one of the L2 addresses of its interfaces (is it the first real interface which is enslaved?), any packet which is destined with this L2 dest address in its eth header, will be considered locally destined. This simple fact solves my issue.
