Docker with no network inside its containers
Hello. I'll be straightforward. As for how the product works and its features, I am delighted. It is very good for what it is proposed. However, it is difficult to make minimal changes to improve the use of Firewalla.
I've been trying to make the network work in the Docker container environment by three weeks. Nothing works. What's even worse is this "forced reset" that we are forced to accept when restarting the device. So I ask you: how will I use Docker or any other service that requires some commands via the Command Terminal and no reset after device's rebooting? For example... just now, following this tutorial (Yes. I'm trying everything) at this link: https://forums.docker.com/t/docker-bridge-networking-does-not-work-in-ubuntu-22-04/136326/4 (forum from the Docker company itself), Gold Plus crashed the entire network filtered by itself and only got it fixed after restarting it (along with a forced reset). Several people whom followed the quoted tutorial had their problem solved (maybe they're not using Firewalla, though) I do not know what else to do. I ask for help please. And I suggest making this forced reset optional. Thanks.

Hi Glauco,
You are perhaps asking a few different questions.
Firewalla attempts to self heal in many ways so some things will work even if you mess up (at least to a degree). So some things may be removed from time to to time.
If you are looking for something to restore things that may get wiped out when Firewalla reboots or upgrades, see this article. https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/360054056754-Customized-Scripting-If you need to run some command on a schedule, you can use user cron jobs.
If you want to backup your cron jobs and scripts, I wrote a backup script. gist.github.com/mbierman/98be7f57a58ff32d1da3348e93371b8a
If your concern is mistakes with docker, you need to be patient, ask for help if needed, and get familiar with how to repair any damage docker can do. Prune appropriately (or you will run out disk space and firewalla may crash), and learn how to stop, start, install, and unisntall docker containers. If you want to run them on Firewalla, that's fine but there is some risk. Worst case, you may need to flash your firewalla and restore your settings (and of course any scripts etc. that you spent time writing.)
