ifupdown-netns

Some simple scripts to simplify configuring network namespaces on Debian-like systems. Copy them into the corresponding directories under /etc/network.

To configure an interface in a namespace:

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet manual
  netns myns

On invocation of ifup it will create the necessary directories under /etc/netns/ and an empty /etc/netns/<namespace>/network/interfaces file if it doesn't already exist.

If it does and the interface is configured it will invoke ifup inside the namespace.
