[lxc-users] Question on bridging in nested containers

[Guido Jäkel]

Dear Fajar,

Theoretical, for the root host it should be possible to "pull out" the "fist container level end" of the vet's of for the nested containers to the host by changing it's namespace, isn't it?

But because this will need the "cooperation" of the host environment to start a nested container from the first level container, which will undermine the nesting szenario.


Dear Anjali,

what's your usecase or aim to try such a way?

Guido
