CNI, the _Container Network Interface_, is a proposed standard for configuring network interfaces for Linux application containers.
The standard consists of a simple specification for how executable plugins can be used to configure network namespaces; this repository also contains a go library implementing that specification.
CNI concerns itself with setting up network connectivity of containers and removing allocated resources when the container is deleted.
Because of this focus CNI has a wide range of support and the specification is simple to implement.
The specification itself is contained in [SPEC.md](SPEC.md).
## Why develop CNI?
