Incoming! Private Networks and WireGuard VPNs

12

I believe we already do expose the address in the environment, but need to check what that is.

As for /etc/hosts — we do that now! The general sequence of events is:

  1. A container image is built, either on your side and pushed to our container repository, or on ours.

  2. When an instance is deployed, on demand, we convert the layers of the container image to a rootfs for Firecracker.

  3. We then inject things into that rootfs — /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf included.

  4. We start the VM.

  5. The VM runs our init, which sets up interfaces.

  6. init calls your entrypoint.

(Steps 3 and 5 might have been swapped lately, because Jerome is tinkering with how we build rootfs’s to make VMs boot faster, but the effect is the same).

I await Jerome’s corrections. :slight_smile:
