Hi LXC-Users, is there an easy way to create/move a tap interface to an unprivileged container?
My idea is to create an unprivileged container in order to create virtual networks within the container. That would separate it from other containers and other virtual networks. So in the container one could start several kvm instances and connect them via e.g. vde_switch. But one needs one entry point to this virtual network, this can be done with a tap interface as a link between an instance of vde_switch and the container. But in the moment I have no clue how to do this... Has anyone an idea? Do I have to start the unprivileged container as user root with enough UID/GID mappings in order to achieve this? Or do I need a tool similar to lxc-user-nic to create a tap device on the host and move it to the container? Or did anyone already realized something similar, e.g. for openvpn?
