'''Virtual Ethernet device''' is an Ethernet-like device that can be used
inside a [[container]]. Unlike a [[venet]] network device, a [[veth]] device
has a MAC address. Therefore, it can be used in more configurations. When veth
is bridged to a [[CT0]] network interface (e.g., eth0), the container can act as an
independent host on the network. The container's user can set up all of the networking
himself, including IPs, gateways, etc.
