Dear Arun, You may also use a DHCP environment to setup the containers network IP, routing, DNS-Servers etc. This approach will ease any changes of the network infrastructure and will help you to make your templates more generic. For that, you have the to assign a fix MAC address to the container and to configure a fixed parameter table (host/IP/MAC) at the dhcpd.
At my lxc-starter I'm using the formula IP=$(gethostbyname $CONTAINER) HWADDR=`IP=${IP#*.}; printf "00:50:C2:%02X:%02X:%02X" ${IP//./ }` # a.b.c.d -> 00:50:C2:bb:cc:dd (hex) [...] lxc-start -n $CONTAINER [...] -s lxc.network.hwaddr=$HWADDR Guido >> >> My tactical work around was to inject the route add into >> >> /etc/rc.d/rc.local >> >> in the rootfs template for my LXC containers, so when I create each >> >> container rc.local is staged, did the same with /etc/resolv.conf as well. > > Hi, > > > > I am trying to add a default gateway inside a lxc container so that the > > application can talk to outside network. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ _______________________________________________ Lxc-users mailing list Lxc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lxc-users
