 ## Overview
 
-This plugin can change some system controls (sysctls) in the network namespace.
+This plugin can change some system controls (sysctls) and several netlink attributes (promiscuous mode and mac) in the network namespace.
 It does not create any network interfaces and therefore does not bring connectivity by itself.
 It is only useful when used in addition to other plugins.

+## Netlink Operation
+The parameters, "mac", "mtu" and "promisc", changes the interface attributes as followings:
+
+```
+{
+  "name": "mytuning",
+  "type": "tuning",
+  "promisc": true,
+  "mac": "c2:b0:57:49:47:f1",
+  "mtu": 1454
+}

+
+## Netlink configuration reference
+
+* `mac` (string, optional): MAC address (i.e. hardware address) of interface
+* `mtu` (integer, optional): MTU of interface
+* `promisc` (bool, optional): Change the promiscas mode of interface
+
+## Supported arguments
+The following [CNI_ARGS](https://github.com/containernetworking/cni/blob/master/SPEC.md#parameters) are supported:
+
+* `MAC`: request a specific MAC address for the interface 
+
+    (example: CNI_ARGS="IgnoreUnknown=true;MAC=c2:11:22:33:44:55")
+
+Note: You may add `IgnoreUnknown=true` to allow loose CNI argument verification (see CNI's issue[#560](https://github.com/containernetworking/cni/issues/560)).
