Of not, then how. If yes, then what type of routing table would > i actually see outside of the containers ? And back to the original question, > would socket(), bind(INADDR_ANY) from inside the containers work correctly ? Yes. bind(INADDR_ANY) works correctly inside a network namespace. A network namespace is from an application perspective like having a separate copy of the networking stack.
