cgroups memory limit, in MB
Changed in version 2015.5.0: If no value is passed, no limit is set. In earlier Salt versions, not passing this value causes a 1024MB memory limit to be set, and it was necessary to pass memory=0 to set no limit.
Network profile to use for the container
New in version 2015.5.0.
Deprecated since version 2015.5.0: Use network_profile instead
Extra options for network interfaces. E.g.:
{"eth0": {"mac": "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff", "ipv4": "10.1.1.1", "ipv6": "2001:db8::ff00:42:8329"}}
List defined containers (running, stopped, and frozen) for the named (or all) host(s).

salt-run lxc.purge name
Start the named container.
salt-run lxc.start name
Stop the named container.
salt-run lxc.stop name
