To enable source IP propagation, you can\n\nUse the slirp4netns RootlessKit port driver Use the pasta RootlessKit network driver, with the implicit port driver\n\nThe pasta network driver is experimental, but provides improved throughput performance compared to the slirp4netns port driver. The pasta driver requires Docker Engine version 25.0 or later.\n\nTo change the RootlessKit networking configuration\n\nCreate a file at ~/.config/systemd/user/docker.service.d/override.conf.
