@tsullivan thanks for writing this up, I think you did a nice job covering the options here. Just a couple of questions/nits for you below
A network policy applies not only to outgoing requests, but also incoming responses. That means if a request goes out to an allowed | ||
host, but is redirected and a response returns from a denied host, the response will be denied, and the report will fail. |

nit: Isn't this still technically an outgoing request? The redirect would involve a response from the allowed host, and then the browser would issue a new request to the denied host -- the network policy would then prevent the connection to the denied host.
The way it's currently written, I could misinterpret this to believe that Chromium would connect to the denied host, but simply ignore the response.

Yes, I mistook what is going on in the response handler code that I have become slightly familiar with.
I should have realized the point you made, but now I'm less sure about what the code is doing :)

Yup, that's correct: we do a best effort prior to the request being sent, but if a DNS hijack or something else occurs, this can redirect to internal-only IPs or worse (the file://
protocol, etc).
This is why we check both the request itself, as well as the response, and if any violate network policies then the session is shutdown immediately (the browser is closed, we log the reason, and the reporting job is failed).

Cool, glad to understand it better.
I think that level of detail might not be required for the docs. I'm just going to wipe out these sentences.
==== Disabling Reporting Network Policy | ||
|

You can use the `xpack.reporting.capture.networkPolicy.enabled: false` setting to disable the network policy feature. The default for | ||
this configuration property is `true`, so it is not necessary to explicitly enable it. |

question is there a functional difference between disabling the network policy, and not defining a network policy at all?

The answer is no, and there probably is no use case for disabling the network policy yet still having rules defined.
That should be a schema check on the config, and we can save the user from having an accidental breakage in the config.
