Best practice in giving lxd containers routable IP addresses

[Jeff Pihach]

Hi Daniel,

When going through the network setup for lxd as outlined[0] in the
"Walkthrough of network configuration" section. You can set the "Bridge
interface name" to the primary interface on the host. Your lxc profile
should look as follows, where "br0" is the interface name of the host.

```
$ lxc profile show default
config: {}
description: Default LXD profile
devices:
  eth0:
    name: eth0
    nictype: bridged
    parent: br0
    type: nic
name: default
```

Now whenever I create new containers they are assigned an IP on the
network. You'll then want to add your ssh-key to the authorized_keys on the
container to be able to ssh in.

Hope this helps!
