Hello,

Please, i have a question about Network Interfaces in LXC container:
In my container,i have by default these interfaces:

ubuntu at u5:~$ ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:16:3e:b7:de:91
          inet addr:10.0.3.138  Bcast:10.0.3.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::216:3eff:feb7:de91/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:56 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:40 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:7230 (7.2 KB)  TX bytes:3500 (3.5 KB)

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:65536  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)

i'd like to add this new interface:

auto eth1

iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.1.3
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.1
broadcast 192.168.1.255

*So,i have modified this file: /etc/network/interfaces*

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

auto eth1

iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.1.3
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.1
broadcast 192.168.1.255

i have done reboot but it didn't work ! when i use ifconfig, i cant' find
the new interface:
ubuntu at u5:/etc/network$ ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:16:3e:b7:de:91
          inet addr:10.0.3.138  Bcast:10.0.3.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::216:3eff:feb7:de91/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:57 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:40 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:7337 (7.3 KB)  TX bytes:3500 (3.5 KB)

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:65536  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)

Have you an idea please ?


Thanks a lot.
Best regards.
