Container networking refers to the ability for containers to connect to and
|
||||
communicate with each other, or to non-Docker workloads.
|
||||
|
||||
A container has no information about what kind of network it's attached to,
|
||||
or whether their peers are also Docker workloads or not.
|
||||
A container only sees a network interface with an IP address,
|
||||
a gateway, a routing table, DNS services, and other networking details.
|
||||
That is, unless the container uses the `none` network driver.
|
||||
Containers have networking enabled by default, and they can make outgoing
|
||||
connections. A container has no information about what kind of network it's
|
||||
attached to, or whether their peers are also Docker workloads or not. A
|
||||
container only sees a network interface with an IP address, a gateway, a

|

## User-defined networks
|
||||
|
||||
You can create custom, user-defined networks, and connect multiple containers
|
||||
to the same network. Once connected to a user-defined network, containers can
|
||||
communicate with each other using container IP addresses or container names.
|
||||
|
||||
The following example creates a network using the `bridge` network driver and
|
||||
running a container in the created network:
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ docker network create -d bridge my-net
|
||||
$ docker run --network=my-net -itd --name=container3 busybox
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Drivers
|
||||
|
||||
The following network drivers are available by default, and provide core
|
||||
networking functionality:
|
||||
|
||||
| Driver | Description |
|
||||
| :-------- | :----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `bridge` | The default network driver. |
|
||||
| `host` | Remove network isolation between the container and the Docker host. |
|
||||
| `none` | Completely isolate a container from the host and other containers. |
|
||||
| `overlay` | Overlay networks connect multiple Docker daemons together. |
|
||||
| `ipvlan` | IPvlan networks provide full control over both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing. |
|
||||
| `macvlan` | Assign a MAC address to a container. |
|
||||
|
||||
For more information about the different drivers, see [Network drivers
|
||||
overview](./drivers/_index.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Container networks
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to user-defined networks, you can attach a container to another
|
||||
container's networking stack directly, using the `--network
|
||||
container:<name|id>` flag format.
|
||||
|
||||
The following flags aren't supported for containers using the `container:`
|
||||
networking mode:
|
||||
|
||||
- `--add-host`
|
||||
- `--hostname`
|
||||
- `--dns`
|
||||
- `--dns-search`
|
||||
- `--dns-option`
|
||||
- `--mac-address`
|
||||
- `--publish`
|
||||
- `--publish-all`
|
||||
- `--expose`
|
||||
|
||||
The following example runs a Redis container, with Redis binding to
|
||||
`localhost`, then running the `redis-cli` command and connecting to the Redis
|
||||
server over the `localhost` interface.
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ docker run -d --name redis example/redis --bind 127.0.0.1
|
||||
$ docker run --rm -it --network container:redis example/redis-cli -h 127.0.0.1
