## Starting the Docker daemon
Once Docker is installed, you will need to start the Docker daemon.
```bash
$ sudo systemctl start docker
# or on older distributions, you may need to use
$ sudo service docker start
```
If you want Docker to start at boot, you should also:
```bash
$ sudo systemctl enable docker
# or on older distributions, you may need to use
$ sudo chkconfig docker on
```

First, create a systemd drop-in directory for the docker service:
1. Create a systemd drop-in directory for the docker service:
mkdir /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d

Now create a file called `/etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/http-proxy.conf`
