replfwd Pods
The replfwd pod is very similar to the wforce pod, and consists of the following containers:
- Init Containers
- wforce-init - A container that runs a templating engine on the configuration file for
replfwd
- wforce-init - A container that runs a templating engine on the configuration file for

- replfwd - The
replfwdimage, that forwards statsdb and block/allow list messages to/from other clusters. - wforce-agent - An agent that monitors the
