Greetings, Peter Steele!

Do NOT do this.
If you want completely random private MAC's, start with 02:...
Ref: http://www.iana.org/assignments/ethernet-numbers/ethernet-numbers.xhtml
in my default.conf as well and that generated a random mac address
starting with b6:38, then 78:47, and so on. Is there a recommended
prefix for the auto-generated lxc mac addresses?
The recommended prefix is the one that is set by default.
You MAY use private prefix, but make sure it is properly indicated.
I know I don't want arbitrarily random mac addresses, I was asking what
is the recommended lxc prefix? A previous poster suggested
00:16:3e:xx:xx:xx
I decided to try
00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
just to see if lxc would pick its own hard coded prefix but it seemed to
generate something different each time. You recommended that I should use the
one that is set by default, but what is that? My default.conf had no entry
lxc.network.hwaddr until I put one there.
