 In general,
I've found that LXC networking is no different than any other type of
virtualizaion.
In fact,
If you implement libvirt, the virtual networking objects (ie br,
virbr, etc) once created can be utilized by any/all virtual networking
technologies.

So, for example I also have KVM installed on my machine and Guests
using either KVM or LXC can use the same define Linux Bridge Devices.
And, I've read that the same should be possible with Virtual Box and
likely VMware.

Generally speaking, it's preferable to bind Guest (Container)
networking to a Linux Bridge Device instead of directly to hardware.
Benefits are supposed to be superior ability to manage your virtual
networking with options like assigned network names, their own ip
address ranges, default gateway, NAT and maybe more
