I need to create a TAP device for my SoftEther VPN software to work correctly (as far as I can tell). I see a tun of tutorials on how to create an TUN device on LXC containers, and I can do that no problem, but I am unable to create a TAP device. I basically tried editing the TUN instructions and changing the autodev options to TAP, but that doesn't show when I run "ifconfig". Does anyone know how to create a TAP device in LXC?
