Passing Promiscous interface through to a Snap Instance

snapcraft

I am trying to pass through an interface through into a snap as part of zeek sensor build. I am able to get the standard eth0 which allows the snap to download and access the required files for zeek however my appliance has second interface I would like to pass through. I have a feeling its tied directly to how lxd manages the interfaces but I don’t know how to reflect that in the snap config.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi, can you please provide more details, a snapcraft.yaml you have perhaps can also take us a long way.
