Ability to set static client side port for target?

Might be missing something here from the documentation / terraform provider, but when connecting through to targets with CORS the randomly assigned port given causes some issues.

Is there a way we can set a port for a target to a constant? If not connecting to APIs with CORS is going to be a little difficult for software that doesn’t support using patterns for CORS.

Thanks for trying out Boundary Ben. Can you give us some details about what you’re trying to accomplish here? Examples and errors from the command line would be super useful.

Cheers
Jeff

boundary connect (without a helper overlay) supports the -listen-port flag that lets you specify a port. E.g. in my current demo environment:

$ boundary connect -target-id ttcp_YpA0cAzr0x

Proxy listening information:
  Address:             127.0.0.1
  Connection Limit:    -1
  Expiration:          Sat, 19 Jun 2021 00:52:55 EDT
  Port:                41759
  Protocol:            tcp
  Session ID:          s_LfBAx3gE1u

But with -listen-port:

$ boundary connect -target-id ttcp_YpA0cAzr0x -listen-port 31022

Proxy listening information:
  Address:             127.0.0.1
  Connection Limit:    -1
  Expiration:          Sat, 19 Jun 2021 00:53:54 EDT
  Port:                31022
  Protocol:            tcp
