My setup uses the container name as its handle.
If I create a container like this: 

cd /var/lib/lxc
mkdir test
/usr/lib/lxc/templates/lxc-debian-box -n test -p /var/lib/lxc/test

I can access it with:

ssh r...@test.freedom.box

Maybe this is what you want?
My setup uses dnsmasq to do some DHCP/DNS magic. 
Wrote an article about my setup:
