Unable to connect to the external network about pcfdev

@pradp - you'll need to add a security group in order to allow traffic from the app container to the user-provided service running on your host.

i just ran through testing connectivity from spring-music to a redis instance running on my host as follows (replaced in your ip):

 ○ → cat > sg.json
   [
     {
       "protocol": "tcp",
       "destination": "192.168.1.6",
       "ports": "6379"
     }
   ]
^D

○ → cf create-security-group host-redis sg.json
Creating security group host-redis as admin
OK

○ → cf bind-security-group host-redis micropcf-org micropcf-space
Assigning security group host-redis to space micropcf-space in org micropcf-org as admin...
OK

○ → cf ssh spring-music -k
vcap@bepbr6nakkq:~$ curl 192.168.1.6:6379

Thanks @davidwadden it worked. I missed the security constraint completely. I have blogged about this project.

Re-opening to indicate that we have feature in the backlog to add a security group for the host.

This feature was completed in February.
