[lxc-devel] external name of veth-interface

[Jäkel, Guido]

Hi,

is there a possibility to let LXC have control over the external naming of the veth-Device to replace  veth<random>  by something related to a concrete container? E.g. a name assigned by the containers configuration, the container name itself or at least (maybe as a default) the pid of the lxc-init process.

A unique fixed name would make some things easyer to implement on the host, e.g. traffic accounting.
