Using Bosh Add-Ons to Customize your CF Experience
summary
BOSH add-ons plug into the director via a single runtime_config add-ons file and actually modify VM jobs: example demo uses a Concourse deployment of three VMs to add SSH users, an SSH banner and a sysctl change (IPv6) with one key granting access to one role only, proving it works. Add-ons are global, support include/exclude filters (added in v2.60), deploy via Ops Manager/apply-changes, and removal requires bosh recreate to remove jobs; avoid modifying iptables or kernel modules.
