How to enable lxd hostname resolution from the lxd host?

After creating the below container:

>>> lxc launch ubuntu: container
Creating container
Starting container

>>> lxc list
+-----------------+---------+----------------------+------+------------+-----------+
| container       | RUNNING | 10.240.38.157 (eth0) |      | PERSISTENT | 0         |
+-----------------+---------+----------------------+------+------------+-----------+

It can be reached using the IP address but not using the hostname:

>>> ping 10.240.38.157 -c 3
PING 10.240.38.157 (10.240.38.157) 56(84) bytes of data.
