Restrict external access of this network when using a `bridge` network. Note when using the CNI backend
DNS will be automatically disabled, see **--disable-dns**.
When using the `macvlan` or `ipvlan` driver with this option no default route will be added to the container.
Because it bypasses the host network stack no additional restrictions can be set by podman and if a
privileged container is run it can set a default route themselves. If this is a concern then the
container connections should be blocked on your actual network gateway.
Using the `bridge` driver with this option has the following effects:
- Global IP forwarding sysctls will not be changed in the host network namespace.
- IP forwarding is disabled on the bridge interface instead of setting up a firewall.
- No default route will be added to the container.
In all cases, aardvark-dns will only resolve container names with this option enabled.
Other queries will be answered with `NXDOMAIN`.
