Configure Container and Management Interface

The following requirements apply before the next step:

• A DHCP server for setting the IP address of bridge and container/VM
• a SSH public key under /root/.ssh/authorized_keys (only for container)
• prepare_container.sh script on the DuT under /root (for container)
