One minute read

Adding secondary NIC to LXD container

Create container in stopped state:

lxc init images:alpine/edge server

Then add NIC:

lxc config device add server eth1 nic nictype=bridged parent=docker0

Start container and login inside:

lxc start server
lxc exec server sh

You will see that yo have now two network interfaces. Set an IP address to it:

ip link set eth1 up
ip addr add 172.17.0.200/24 broadcast 172.17.0.255 dev eth1
