Hopefully the Wiki can help you out fully on this one:

http://wiki.openvz.org/Main_Page
  http://wiki.openvz.org/Category:Networking
    http://wiki.openvz.org/Virtual_Ethernet_device
    http://wiki.openvz.org/Virtual_network_device

Looking at both pages will explain the differences.  What
you're wanting is the Virtual Ethernet device..
