To keep accounting for network traffic for each container, I need to
know the virtual interface name. The problem is that each time my

like vethCSR894, it is never the same. I have tried by using
lxc.network.veth.pair but that parameter is ignored and a new interace
pair is cerated each time VETH##### (Host) ↔ ETH0 (Container).
So bottom line I want to create a virtual interface that is connected
to my bridge and force the container to use that interface each time.
I used Cacti but any tool has the same issue as the interface name is
randomly generated each time the container starts.
Any help would be appreciated.
It works for me:
lxc.network.veth.pair = veth_da-ipa-0
veth_da-ipa-0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr fe:b4:38:ea:b4:bd
