Dear lxc-users,
I am trying to create several containers with the same VLAN ID on a single host, using <b>lxc.network.type = vlan.
</b>But am able to boot only one container at a time.
I found the following affirmation in this mailing list:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://lists.linuxcontainers.org/pipermail/lxc-users/2010-April/000260.html">https://lists.linuxcontainers.org/pipermail/lxc-users/2010-April/000260.html</a>
> The advantages are the performances + network segmentation and the

Is this information still up to date, since it was published 5 years ago?
As a workaround I can create a bridge on said VLAN, and connect all my containers to it. I would prefer not to do this if possible.
Best regards,
GĂ©rik Bonaert
