[Lxc-users] appropriate architecture for two sets of containers on one host

[Jäkel, Guido]

... and if you don't like to deal with changing spanning trees or broad/multicast storms I strongly recommend to let only *one* do any routing for all - for the lxc host and for all other machines in the network. Of course, this one is the (core) router.
