 enable IPv6 support in the Docker daemon. Afterward, you can choose to use
 either IPv4 or IPv6 (or both) with any container, service, or network.
 
-> **Note**: IPv6 networking is only supported on Docker daemons running on Linux

-1.  Edit `/etc/docker/daemon.json`, set the `ipv6` key to `true` and the `fixed-cidr-v6` key
-    to your IPv6 subnet. In this example we are setting it to `2001:db8:1::/64`.
+## Daemon configuration
 
-    ```json
-    {
-      "ipv6": true,
-      "fixed-cidr-v6": "2001:db8:1::/64"
-    }
-    ```
+To enable IPv6, you must edit the Docker daemon configuration file located at
+`/etc/docker/daemon.json`. Configure the following parameters:
 
-    Save the file.
+```json
+{
+  "experimental": true,
+  "ipv6": true,
+  "ip6tables": true,
+  ...
+}
+```
 
-2.  Reload the Docker configuration file.
+You can optionally also configure the `fixed-cidr-v6` key, if you want to
+assign an IPv6 subnet to the default bridge network:
 
-    ```console
-    $ systemctl reload docker
-    ```
+```diff
+{
+  "experimental": true,
+  "ipv6": true,
+  "ip6tables": true,
++ "fixed-cidr-v6": "2001:db8:1::/64",
+  ...
+}
+```
+
+After saving the configuration file, reload the Docker daemon for your
+changes to take effect:
+
+```console
+$ systemctl reload docker
+```
 
 You can now create networks with the `--ipv6` flag and assign containers IPv6
 addresses using the `--ip6` flag.
 
+## Dynamic IPv6 subnet allocation
+
+If you want dynamic IPv6 subnet allocation, you must explicitly configure the
+`default-address-pools` parameter to include:
+
+- The default address pool values
+- One or more custom IPv6 supernets
+
+> **Note**
+>
+> Be aware that the following known limitations exist:
+>
+> - Supernets can't have a size larger than 80. This is due to an integer
+>   overflow in the Docker daemon. See
+>   [moby/moby#42801](https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/42801)
+> - The difference between the supernet length and the pool size can't be
+>   larger than 24. Otherwise, the daemon consumes all available memory. See
+>   [moby/moby#40275](https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/40275)
+
+The default address pool configuration is:
+
+```json
+{
+  "default-address-pools": [
+    { "base": "172.17.0.0/16", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.18.0.0/16", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.19.0.0/16", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.20.0.0/16", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.24.0.0/14", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.28.0.0/14", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.28.0.0/16", "size": 20 }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+The following example shows a valid configuration with the default values and
+an IPv6 supernet, with a prefix length of 64 and a size of 80.
+
+```json
+{
+  "default-address-pools": [
+    { "base": "172.17.0.0/16", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.18.0.0/16", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.19.0.0/16", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.20.0.0/16", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.24.0.0/14", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.28.0.0/14", "size": 16 },
+    { "base": "172.28.0.0/16", "size": 20 },
+    { "base": "2001:db8::/64", "size": 80 }
+  ]
+}
+```
