<p dir="ltr">Virtual box virtual adapters also can be set in bridge/nat/or isolated network also internal network for box. Easy way to test this is with live Linux image. Run it in vbox with different adaptor settings and see results. Nothing better than experience even sometimes you reinvent the wheel :-) </p>

If I install LXC in there, according to instructions for LXC, the eth0 network interface is to be bridged to the LXC container and the network ip to the LXC gets assigned by the router again in the 192.168.0.x range.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I also understand that you can set the LXC to get the IP dished out from the hardware box's eth0 in a NAT format so they can get the ip in the 192.168.100.x series. (It is convoluted to do it with Arch but it is doable)</div>

I think he wants multiple IPs assigned to the VM so each container can<br>
have an IP. I never figured out how to do that with virtualbox, I<br>
always found the networking to be too much of a pain.<br>
