For HPC if you are interested in migration you need a separate IP per
container.  If you can take you IP address with you migration of
networking state is simple.  If you can't take your IP address with
you a network container is nearly pointless from a migration
perspective.

Eric, please, I know... I showed you a migration demo at OLS ;)

Beyond that from everything I have seen layer 2 is just much cleaner
than any layer 3 approach short of Serge's bind filtering.

Beyond that I have yet to see a clean semantics for anything
resembling your layer 2 layer 3 hybrid approach.  If we can't have
clear semantics it is by definition impossible to implement correctly
because no one understands what it is supposed to do.

Note.  A true layer 3 approach has no impact on TCP/UDP filtering
because it filters at bind time not at packet reception time.  Once
you start inspecting packets I don't see what the gain is from not
going all of the way to layer 2.

The bsdjail was just for information ...
