[Question] How to make services only see only one external network interface and loopback

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am working on a service unit for a DHT crawler.

For some reason, it doesn't work well with the default network settings
because it seems to use a huge amount of traffic for a very small
amount of findings.

The same program works fine via docker, but I want to package it as a
hardened systemd unit.

A difference between the network layout in Docker and the host is that
Docker only exposes the "lo" interface and an upstream one, and the host
exposes everything and I think it's causing some kind of conflict.

How can I implement this Docker behaviour in systemd?

I tried using PrivateNetwork but it kills any Internet access because
only localhost is available.

Is there any not so well known feature to implement this?

I am running systemd 251.7 on NixOS. I already have experience
converting systemd stuff to the way the NixOS module system understands.

Thanks in advance
