There is probably a way to setup the static ip address here in this config file for the container. I am pretty sure I saw an option. However, in the vein of individual container control, I would rather set that at the container level using steps outlined below. |
Next, modify the interfaces file within the container to your selected static IP address. I find the fastest is from within the Host OS using root, /var/lib/lxc/<container name>/rootfs/etc/network/interfaces which in this case would be, /var/lib/lxc/web/rootfs/etc/network/interfaces,

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 64.73.220.117 gateway 64.73.220.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 dns-nameservers 216.15.129.205 216.15.129.206 auto eth1 iface eth1 inet dhcp |
Above we now have to two interfaces. That The static interface is the public IP address purchased called eth0 and second is the internal LXC assigned address. The other entries can be obtained from Add Additional IP Addresses to Ubuntu Server.
