How to set up a container just like a virtual machine in bridge mode? (meaning, the container gets its own external ip)

Interesting but it sounds like you need a network / container right?

what do you mean?

The changing mac thing can be avoided if you choose to delete eth1 instead of just taking it down. But, once I´m finished, I release the ip, so I need eth1 to be up again. So, it does not matter which mac I use, I need to change it before bringing the container up, got it?
