Troubleshooting — docker run -p does not propagate source IP addresses
This is because Docker Engine's userland-proxy is incompatible with RootlessKit's source IP propagation.

This is because Docker Engine's userland-proxy is incompatible with RootlessKit's source IP propagation.
To disable userland-proxy, add the following configuration to ~/.config/docker/daemon.json
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```json
{"userland-proxy": false}
```
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```bash
systemctl --user restart docker
```
You may also need to load br_netfilter kernel module
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```bash
sudo tee /etc/modules-load.d/docker.conf <<EOF >/dev/null
br_netfilter
EOF
sudo systemctl restart systemd-modules-load.service
```
This is because RootlessKit's builtin port didn't support source IP propagation until v3.0. To enable source IP propagation, you can
Use the slirp4netns RootlessKit port driver Use the pasta RootlessKit network driver, with the implicit port driver
The 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.
To change the RootlessKit networking configuration
Create a file at ~/.config/systemd/user/docker.service.d/override.conf. Add the following contents, depending on which configuration you would like to use
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```systemd
[Service]
Environment="DOCKERD_ROOTLESS_ROOTLESSKIT_NET=slirp4netns"
Environment="DOCKERD_ROOTLESS_ROOTLESSKIT_PORT_DRIVER=slirp4netns"
```
pasta network driver with implicit port driver
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```systemd
[Service]
Environment="DOCKERD_ROOTLESS_ROOTLESSKIT_NET=pasta"
Environment="DOCKERD_ROOTLESS_ROOTLESSKIT_PORT_DRIVER=implicit"
```
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```console
$ systemctl --user daemon-reload
$ systemctl --user restart docker
```
