Hi Peter, 

lxc.network.type = veth 
lxc.network.veth.pair = veth0 

Should be enough in your container configuration file (config) 

Also, you can make sure there is no related entries in lxc.conf and 
default.conf . 

lxc.network.veth.pair cannot be set when using Unprivileged container 

But you can assign your own mac address by using : 

lxc.network.hwaddr = <MAC_ADDRESS> 


Cordialement,

Objet: [lxc-users] Setting lxc.network.veth.pair 

I want to pick my own naming convention for the veth interfaces created 
by LXC rather than using the auto-generated names. I tried adding the entry 

lxc.network.veth.pair = veth0 

in one of my privileged containers but it still get a random name of 
'veth6HIE0A' instead of eth0. Am I mistaken as to how this is supposed 
to work. Ideally I would like to see something like 
'veth0-<container-name>' but 'vethN' when N either is assigned 
automatically when containers are started or alternatively where I set N 
myself in the container's config. What's possible and what's not? 

Thanks.
