## Prevent Docker from manipulating iptables
To prevent Docker from manipulating the `iptables` policies at all, set the
`iptables` key to `false` in `/etc/docker/daemon.json`. This is inappropriate
for most users, because the `iptables` policies then need to be managed by hand.
It is possible to set the `iptables` key to `false` in the Docker engine's configuration file at `/etc/docker.daemon.json`, but this option is not appropriate for most users. It is not possible to completely prevent Docker from creating `iptables` rules, and creating them after-the-fact is extremely involved and beyond the scope of these instructions. Setting `iptables` to `false` will more than likely break container networking for the Docker engine.
For system integrators who wish to build the Docker runtime into other applications, explore the [`moby` project](https://mobyproject.org/).
