[PVE-User] Routing inside LXC container (System V)

[Josh Knight]

Is this configuration inside the Ubuntu container, or on the proxmox host?

Ubuntu 18.04 uses netplan by default to configure networking backends.  It
supports adding routes and route policies using a yaml config file.

https://netplan.io/reference#routing

Additionally, this faq section (as well as the following two sections)
should be able to guide you on either converting your scripts to work with
18.04, or to install ifupdown and fallback to the legacy
/etc/network/interfaces configuration.
