[Lxc-users] Getting IP address of running container

[David Chute]

My containers run DHCP and this is how I'd obtain the IP.

command:
lxc-ls --fancy

output:

NAME  STATE    IPV4       IPV6  AUTOSTART
-----------------------------------------
CN    RUNNING  10.0.3.77  -     NO
test  RUNNING  10.0.3.14  -     NO
