Hello,

I have a virtual interface vlan190 on my lxc container. When my container
boots, this interface only get ipv6 address. The dhcpcd daemon is start by
init environment using command dhcpcd . The expectation is that it will
reach /etc/dhcpcd.conf file which is where I specify the interface to
configure. Here is my dhcpcd.conf file (do read last few lines) . In Spite
of this, I do not get IPv4 IP on my vlan190 .

When I run "dhcpcd --waitip 4 vlan190 on command line, I get IPv4 IP
immediately. However I cannot specify vlan190 on my init scripts for
dhcpcd. It has to go inside dhcpcd.conf. Is that a way to specify virtual
interface in dhcpcd.conf.
