What we do is a bit simpler: Just add the appropriate NIC into the
guest. This way the host loses access to the NIC and the guest can be
configured in exactly the same way a non-virtualized server would be
configured. Routing and firewalling is then done by our usual routers
and firewalls, again exactly like it works for non-virtualized servers.

To avoid having to put 50 NIC's in each VZ server we actually do it with
VLAN interfaces rather than NIC's.
