netavark: A container network stack

Netavark is a rust based network stack for containers. It is being designed to work with Podman but is also applicable for other OCI container management applications.

Overview and scope

Netavark is capable of the following given the proper JSON input:

• Create, manage, and destroy network interfaces including bridge and macvlan
• Configure firewall (NAT) and port mapping rules
• Support IPv4 and IPv6

As this project is in very early development, we will add more capabilities in the near future.
