Network Settings

This page will guide you through setting up and managing Docker Network.

Overview

Synology Docker allows you to set up the following network interface drivers:

  • bridge: an isolated network namespace。
  • host: the same network namespace with Docker host

By default, there will be one host network and one bridge network after installing Docker package. It is recommended to use user-defined bridge networks to control which containers can communicate with each other, and also to enable automatic DNS resolution of container names to IP addresses.

Note:

  • If you select Use the same network as Docker Host when creating a container, you will not be able to add other bridge networks to the container afterwards.

To create a customized network:

Click Add to launch network creation wizard.

To manage your network:

Click Manage to add a container into a network or delete a container from a network.
