Hello,

I would like to create a systemd container using the --network-bridge option to systemd-nspawn and fixed addresses.

Previously I used lxc containers but I'm afraid adding lxc support is quite a large task.

My previous setup includes:

  • static ip addresses per container (set using LXC, but /etc/network/interface will do),
  • different hostname for each of the containers,
  • configuration of a bind zone for my local container network,
  • configuration of the firewall using ferm,
  • proxy from host to containers using nginx.

If I understand correctly, alias or ipv4 are propagated to the host and are not part of the container definition, is that right?

I am also not sure about the setting of the hostname.

Do you have some hints about how this could be done?
