  1. I don’t know that particular router, but look for something like “static routes” or something along those lines in the web UI. It may look something like this:

    In there you’d want to put 10.0.x.0 as the network IP, 255.255.255.0 as netmask and your server’s 192.168.x.x IP as the gateway.

    After that’s done, all machines on your LAN should be able to reach any of the 10.0.x.x IPs.

  2. For macvlan, you’d typically do something like this, assuming eth0 is your network interface on the host:

    lxc profile device delete default eth0
lxc network delete lxdbr0
lxc profile device add default eth0 nic nictype=macvlan parent=eth0 name=eth0

  3. That one is quite a bit more involved, typically you’ll need to install the bridge-utils package, then modify your /etc/network/interfaces, replacing the name of your main network interface with br0 in the two header lines, then adding an extra line to the interface section containing bridge-ports eth0 (again assuming the physical interface is called eth0).

    After that’s done, your should reboot and check that you still have working connectivity.
    At that point you could then do:

    lxc profile device delete default eth0
lxc network delete lxdbr0
lxc profile device add default eth0 nic nictype=bridged parent=br0 name=eth0

Those options are I think in order of preference and ease of configuration for you.
