Standard devices

Incus provides each instance with the basic devices that are required for a standard POSIX system to work. These devices aren’t visible in the instance or profile configuration, and they may not be overridden.

The standard devices are:

Device	Type of device
/dev/null	Character device
/dev/zero	Character device
/dev/full	Character device
/dev/console	Character device
/dev/tty	Character device
/dev/random	Character device
/dev/urandom	Character device
/dev/net/tun	Character device
/dev/fuse	Character device
lo	Network interface

Any other devices must be defined in the instance configuration or in one of the profiles used by the instance. The default profile typically contains a network interface that becomes eth0 in the instance.
