Hello everyone,
I'm currently developing a macOS application called macOSDocker, which uses Apple's Virtualization.framework to run a lightweight Linux virtual machine hosting Docker containers.
One of the main features is bridged networking using VZBridgedNetworkDeviceAttachment, allowing the virtual machine to obtain its own IP address on the local network and making Docker containers directly accessible without additional NAT or port forwarding.
However, this requires the restricted com.apple.vm.networking entitlement.
Application details:
App: macOSDocker
Bundle ID: com.macOSDocker
Team ID: RYPSKH8HG5
Apple Developer Support Case: 102997773774
I've already contacted Apple Developer Support to request access to this entitlement, but they directed me to the Apple Developer Forums instead.
Currently, Xcode reports that the com.apple.vm.networking entitlement is missing from my provisioning profile.
My questions are:
What is the official process for requesting approval for the restricted com.apple.vm.networking entitlement?
Is there a specific form or contact within Apple Developer Relations for submitting such a request?
I would appreciate any guidance, particularly from Apple engineers, on how to proceed with the entitlement approval process.
Thank you!
Kevin
