Abstract
Interacting with an external environment of a segmented virtual machine is disclosed. An indication that a communication with an external environment is desired is received. It is determined whether the communication can be initiated directly from a core virtual machine of the segmented virtual machine without initiating the communication from a shell virtual machine of the segmented virtual machine. An attempt to initiate the communication is made based as at least in part on the determination.
