weave_password: EnterPasswordHere
```

Weave is deploy by kubernetes with daemonSet

The first variable, `weave_seed`, allows to save the first or firsts node of the weave network

The seconde variable, `weave_peers`, allows to save IP of all node of the weave network

these two allows to connecte a new node to the weave network. this new node need to know the first node (seed) and list of IP to all node of network

For reset these variables set there values to `uninitialized`
