Configuring IPvlan networking in Docker | Guide

Our experts have put together this handy guide to help you configure IPVlan in Docker.

1. Before we begin, we have to ensure that our Linux kernel supports IPvlan. We can verify this with the following command:

   lsmod | grep ipvlan
2. Then, start Docker in swarm mode with this command:

   docker swarm init
3. After that, we have to create an IPvlan network in Docker with the docker network create command. Remember to mention ipvlan as the driver. We also have to include the necessary subnet and gateway information.
4. Next, we must create a container attached to the IPvlan network.
5. Finally, it is time to verify the network configuration by inspecting the container. We can use the docker inspect command and provide the container ID or name.

After the above steps, IPvlan networking is successfully configured in Docker.

At the end of the day, IPvlan networking in Docker allows us to connect containers directly to the host’s network interfaces. This provides them with their own unique MAC addresses and IP addresses. Furthermore, this can be useful for scenarios where we want containers to have direct access to the network.

Our experts would like to point out that IPvlan networking is available only in swarm mode and tends to have specific requirements and limitations depending on the network setup.
