The blog shows something like that:

"lxc.utsname = test lxc.network.type = veth lxc.network.flags = up 
lxc.network.link = br0 lxc.network.hwaddr = 4a:49:43:49:79:bd 
lxc.network.ipv4 = 192.168.250.150 lxc.network.ipv6 = 
2003:db8:1:0:214:1234:fe0b:3596"

The configuration file should be in this format:

lxc.utsname = test
lxc.network.type = veth
lxc.network.flags = up
lxc.network.link = br0
lxc.network.hwaddr = 4a:49:43:49:79:bd
lxc.network.ipv4 = 192.168.250.150
lxc.network.ipv6 = 2003:db8:1:0:214:1234:fe0b:3596

Thanks
