For host-initiated connections, Firecracker will be listening on the Unix socket identified by the path `uds_path`. Firecracker will create this socket, bind and listen on it. Host-initiated connections will be performed by connection to this socket and issuing a connection forwarding request to the desired guest-side vsock port (i.e. `CONNECT 52\n`, to connect to port 52). For guest-initiated connections, Firecracker will expect host software to be bound and listening on Unix sockets at `uds_path_`. E.g. "/path/to/host_vsock.sock_52" for port number 52. required: - guest_cid - uds_path properties: guest_cid: type: integer minimum: 3 description: Guest Vsock CID uds_path: type: string description: Path to UNIX domain socket, used to proxy vsock connections. vsock_id: type: string description: This parameter has been deprecated and it will be removed in future Firecracker release.
