lxc-usernet(5) lxc-usernet(5)
lxc-usernet - unprivileged user network administration file.
/etc/lxc/lxc-usernet controls the limits which the program lxc-
user-nic places on network interfaces which an unprivileged user
may create.
CONFIGURATION
This file consists of multiple entries, one per line, of the form:
user type bridge number
or
@group type bridge number
Where
user is the username to whom this entry applies.
@group is the groupname to which this entry applies.
type is the type of network interface being allowed. Only veth
is currently supported.
bridge is the bridge to which the network interfaces may be
attached, for instance lxcbr0.
number is the number or quota of network interfaces of the given
type which the given user or group may attach to the given
bridge, for instance 2.
Since a user can be specified both by username as well as one or
more usergroups, it is possible that several configuration lines
enable that user to create network interfaces. In such cases, any
interfaces create are counted towards the quotas of the user or
group in the order in which they appear in the file. If the quota
of one line is full, the rest will be parsed until one is found or
the end of the file.
