As i ran into the same problem, i'll give some additional feedback The problem can be reproduced with : - unspecified lxc.network.type (= none ?) - using halt/reboot/poweroff -i in the guest container
Step by step instructions - create a virtualbox vm - install with source iso debian-7.7.0-amd64-netinst.iso - don't check anything in tasksel, minimal install - apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade && rebooot -i - apt-get install lxc - echo "cgroup /sys/fs/cgroup cgroup defaults 0 0" >> /etc/fstab - mount cgroup - lxc-create -n admin1 -t debian - ip addr shows host ip config : eth0 10.0.2.15 - lxc-start -n admin1 -d - lxc-console -n admin1 - login as root/root - halt/reboot/poweroff -i - console hangs - Cltr-A q to get back to host - ip addr shows host ip config : eth0 has lost its ipv4 addresses By the way : - everything is done in the console of the host, no ssh involved - the very same happens whether the host's eth0 is dhcp or static - guest /var/lib/lxc/admin1/config file was not modified - guest /etc/network/interface was not modified The default container configuration doesn't contain an "lxc.network.type" statement. The default value for lxc.network.type AFAIK seems to be set to "none", which as per [1] **shares** the host eth0 with he guest eth0. So when the guest is going down, the -i argument to the down command deconfigures it's interface, and as it's shared with the host, the host interface is deconfigured too As a consequence, i think the SSH problem mentioned above is more a problem of the host's eth0 being shared with the container's when lxc.network.type is not specified (=none?) **AND** using halt/reboot/poweroff with the -i parameter, which asks the container to shut down all network interfaces just before halt or reboot, and in the case above does so on the host's interface as it's shared. PS: I tested too with - lxc.network.type = empty - lxc.network.type = veth and lxc.network.link = br0 In both case, with or without -i, the host interface was untouched.
