Can I expose my Nvidia gpu to the lan via a docker container?

I have a P400 in my storage server which currently also runs some media containers like Plex, sonarr-sma, radarr-sma, Jellyfin, exploring Immich, etc. I have the GPU surfaced via docker and added it to each of the containers that needed access to the GPU for hardware acceleration needs.

here is a super user post about pcie virtualization, and it involves writing custom drivers.

Off the top of my head, a similar setup with transcoding comes to mind. In this case I used a shared volume mount between the media server and the transcoding server, and ssh to run ffmpeg on the remote server.

I think an easier setup would be to proxy app calls that use the gpu through ssh to your gpu container, then write the output to a volume that the non gpu host can read from.
