[libvirt-users] Mapping physical interface to a container
In the "other" LXC project (linuxcontainers.org), you can map a host's physical ethernet interface to a container, e.g. lxc.network.type = phys lxc.network.flags = up lxc.network.link = eth1 lxc.network.name = eth1 Is there an equivalent option for doing this with libvirt lxc? Peter

Re: [libvirt-users] Mapping physical interface to a container
What I'm ultimately trying to accomplish is the Ubuntu/LXC based instructions described at this link: http://computingnote.blogspot.com/2013/07/set-up-networkings-between-linux.html?showComment=1461253896749#c5912606568282990028 This presumably provides a solution to the EC2 networking issue when using LXC containers. These instructions are for Ubuntu and LXC, not CentOS and libvirt-lxc. I've tried to map the instructions over to equivalent operations in CentOS and libvirt but something isn't working. My suspicion is this LXC config for mapping a physical interface on a host to an interface on the container. The link https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Virtualization_Administration_Guide/sect-attch-nic-physdev.html appears to be what I'm looking for but I'm not 100% sure if this in in fact what I need. Am I on the right track with this?
