Thanks. It seems the command works for the local server only. When I try to
do this from a remote server ("lxc network attach vxlan.1101
QA-Server-04:centos-vm4), I get “error: not found”. Is that expected?
Also, it seems the command, "lxc network show <remote_server>:” has a bug as
the command returns with “error: json: cannot unmarshal array into Go value of
type api.Network". I have just filed a bug (#3230) to track this issue.
