Although I wouldn't consider myself an expert on this, My observation is that network interfaces (generally bridge but logically should also include tap and tun interfaces) exist as devices on the Host and not within a container. Inside the container, eth0 can be configured with additional br/tap/tun interfaces because these types of devices can be chained, but so far I've rarely encountered that.
So, it would be logical that if these devices existed as Host devices and not within the container, the devices would persist beyond the life of a single container. Note also that as a Host device any number and type of virtual guests (including Containers) can use any available device that already exists on the Host. This is just based on observation, if someone knows differently, am open to correction. Tony On Wed, Sep 11, 2013 at 2:07 AM, Fajar A.
