Hi guys. I have a very strange problem.sometimes, the containers got two IPs.
When I restart it, maybe 1 minitues later, the container got another IP like “169.254.xx.xx”
I have export the images here: http://hseek.eu.org/d11.tar.gz
BYW: this images is based Debian11 and with lxde installed.
I have testing many times, and can’t fix this problem. thanks for helping.
169.254.x.x is a link-local IPv4 address, that’s self-assigned by the guest, not something we’d be pushing over DHCP or the like.
So that’s going to be because of some kind of configuration inside of your container.
yes, I have googled about this problem. And I did not make any configuration in the container.
I named it as a strange problem, because I made other image with same steps, but some container is ok, some have this problem.
The steps I made it like: install xrdp+lxde,remove libreoffice*. There are no other special operations.
I tried to modify the mac address of the container, operate in the Debian11/12 OS container, and change the host system to ubuntu/debian, but the problem still persisted.
So I hope guys import this image to help analyze the problem. Thanks.!
Not likely to have much time to try that in a little while as I’m traveling but normal networking rarely messes with link-local stuff, so my best guess is that you installing desktop stuff in there has pulled something like Network Manager or an equivalent into your system which is now making a bit of a mess.
Hope you can enjoy your journey. Thank you for your reply. I will continue to try to change the installed desktop. 
It should be easy to add the appropriate service to a container and get the link-local special address.
The stock container images should not be affected.
This is the relevant log. I hope it can be helpful in solving this problem:

Hello everyone, I’ve tried many methods for this issue but none of them worked. Could anyone import the above image and help me take a look at this very strange problem? Thank you
