-To run a container is as simple as
+To run a container, first launch it on a specific *internal* network. See [[https://howto.cs.uchicago.edu/cloud:cli#networks|Networks]] section of the CLI guide for more information about networks. You can use the general purpose __cloud__ network:
-<code>openstack appcontainer run --net network=campus37 --wait nginx</code>
+<code>openstack appcontainer run --net network=cloud --wait nginx</code>
-Access the public IP address of the container for the default Nginx start page.
+The container will be assigned a //name// and an internal IP on the __cloud__ network. To access the container from the outside world, first obtain a Floating IP address and then assign it to the container:
+<code>
+openstack floating ip create --subnet public37 campus37
+openstack appcontainer add floating ip lambda-15-container 128.135.xx.xx # use the IP address result from the previous command.
+</code>
+Now you can access the public IP address of the container for the default Nginx start page.
 Try these commands to get started (using the UUID of your running container instances):
