I think i'm missing most of the background here; there's some
doc/paper/wiki/... about NS/VETH i can read about?

Still i miss how can i 'link' various interfaces... for example:

This is exactly what i think to do. But... how 'routing' (in
loose/sparse sense, not literally) works on namespaces?

EG, normally i have public IP address assigned to WAN interface, and
private one assigned to LAN; LAN and WAN are not 'linked' between them,
apart routing and firewall rules.

I don't understand how NS/VETH came into this play... and is surely my
fault!

In my head i suppose that WAN is 'linked' (again, in loose/sparse
sense) to a couple of VETH interfaces as above, and i use vE1 to shape
egress traffic and vE0 to shape egress traffic (that is, ingress for
vE1).


Thanks!
