devices with simple interfaces (serial ports, partitions) can be made
accessible to a container.
see man vzctl(8), section "Device access management"

I don't think physical network interfaces can be made to work in a
container.  There are some options though, like using the alternate
veth network interfaces (they usually are bridged with a physical
interface and show up in a container).

Tun/tap devices can be allocated like a "simple" device via vzctl,
although I've not tried to use one as a regular interface inside a
container.
