Hey,
I’m currently trying to set up a container running Debian 10 (amd64) which should be connected to multiple interfaces. Because I want to short and simple addresses I want them to be static. So I configured them as mentioned in other posts about a static IP configuration in LXD. I also enabled DHCPv6 in Debian through the /etc/network/interfaces file.
For the first bridge (lxdbr0) everything works fine. But for the second manually created bridge it does not work as expected. While the IPv4 address is assigned correctly, the IPv6 address only has only the correct prefix but uses a custom suffix.
The same problem with IPv6 occurs when I try to configure a static IPv6 address directly inside the container through the /etc/network/interfaces file, which also only shows up for every ip address except the first one. Here I’m also interested if this type of static configuration is also considered as a bad practise when using LXD (because I never saw someone recommending this type of setup for static ips in LXD).
/etc/network/interfaces (with DHCPv6) file
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth0 inet6 dhcp
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
iface eth1 inet6 dhcp
source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*.cfg
cbr0 bridge configuration (not lxdbr0)
config:
ipv4.address: 10.253.0.1/16
ipv4.dhcp: "true"
ipv4.nat: "true"
ipv6.address: fd00:fffd::1/64
ipv6.dhcp: "true"
ipv6.dhcp.stateful: "true"
ipv6.nat: "true"
