[Vercel Sandboxes](https://vercel.com/docs/vercel-sandbox) now allow opening and binding to port 8080 as an [ingress domain](https://vercel.com/docs/sandbox/sdk-reference#sandbox.domain).

This port was used as a controller port, and that has now moved to port 23456.

```typescript
import { Sandbox } from "@vercel/sandbox";

const sandbox = await Sandbox.create({
  ports: [8080],
});

await sandbox.runCommand({
  cmd: "python3",
  args: ["-m", "http.server", "8080", "--bind", "0.0.0.0"],
  detached: true,
});

console.log(`url: ${sandbox.domain(8080)}`);
```
