Run Against An Existing Machine

    To use an existing machine with Minishift, it needs to be configured as follows:

    Establish password-less SSH from the host to the existing remote machine:

      1. Remote_Machine$ yum install -y docker net-tools firewalld
      2. Remote_Machine$ systemctl enable docker
      3. Remote_Machine$ systemctl start firewalld
      4. Remote_Machine$ systemctl enable firewalld
    1. Allow the , 8443, and 80 TCP ports through the firewall on the remote machine to have communication from the host:

    2. Determine the Docker bridge network container subnet:

        This command displays a subnet, such as 172.17.0.0/16.

      1. Using the Docker bridge network container subnet, create a minishift zone for the firewall with the subnet as its source:

      2. Reload the firewall on the remote machine:

      Use the following command on the host to run Minishift against a remote machine:

      1. $ minishift start --vm-driver generic --remote-ipaddress <remote_IP_address> --remote-ssh-user <username> --remote-ssh-key <private_ssh_key>
