The default ``envoy`` ``uid`` and ``gid`` are ``101``.

The ``envoy`` user also needs to have permission to access any required configuration files mounted
into the container.

If you are running in an environment with a strict ``umask`` setting, you may need to provide envoy with
access either by setting the ``uid`` or ``gid`` of the file, or by making the configuration file readable
by the envoy user.

One method of doing this without changing any file permissions or running as root inside the container
is to start the container with the host user's ``uid``, for example:

.. substitution-code-block:: none

$ docker run -d --name envoy -e ENVOY_UID=`id -u` -p 9901:9901 -p 10000:10000 envoy:v1
