A downside of the fixed IP choice in the Vagrantfile is you can't have two 
boxes running simultaneously on the same machine.

A few more details to what Scott said.

The hypervisor (VirtualBox, etc.) on the host is doing NAT (network address 
translation) to create a private network on the host system.

If you create a VM yourself under VirtualBox, that's the same as the NAT 
choice. The private network can't be reached from other systems, they won't 
know how to route to it, and the host system won't accept packets with that 
address because it doesn't have any physical adapters on that network.

Note: You could run into problems if the (physical) network that the host 
system is on is using the same subnet (don't remember what the netmask is), so 
10.1.2.x.  This should be documented some place for troubleshooting.

Note: Non-routable doesn't mean it can't be used and routed to as an internal 
network.  It just means Internet routers/gateways shouldn't be routing any of 
the private reserved networks like 10.x.x.x, 192.168.x.x, 172.16-172.31.

Containerizing? Why does the user space matter? http://red.ht/1Kl0mpx

Subject: [Container-tools] 10.1.2.2


Within the CDK, we have hardcoded it to 10.1.2.2 in the Vagrantfile, what if I 
boot up 2 CDKs on 2 laptops on the same corporate network?

I assume there will be a conflict.

Eventually, we will need to allow the end-user to tweak the IP address.
