Summary: Physical WIFI NIC gets renamed on container start
Initial Comment:
Having a config like so
lxc.network.type = phys
lxc.network.link = wlan0
lxc.network.name = wifi0
will cause the link on the host to be renamed upon container start. When then container is stopped,
the link will not be renamed to its original name.
Doing so using
ip link set wifi0 name wlan0
and then trying to ifup wlan0 again, will no longer work on the host, the interface
seems to be disfunct. AFAIK, only a reboot helps to get the card working again.
I do not know whether this is also true for non wireless adapters (this one is a
an external usb card using a realtek 8191 chipset).
