Host excluded from bridge network

Expected behavior Host should be able to access the containers by their IP addresses. Actual behavior On a bridge network setup I am not able do any operations using the container’s IP addresses. Information On v1.11.1-beta11 I cant access any of the containers from the host by using their IP addresses. I can execute commands and get into the boxes by running bash through docker exec but whenever I try to access the containers by their IP addresses those operations will fail. Essentially I’m …

Network bridge on host

After reading all the related forum threads, i still don’t get it: do docker mac beta is supposed to set a docker0 bridge interface on the osx host, like it does on linux, so that containers are directly available from host via their local network ip ?

IP Routing to container

Hi, I created a new docker network like this: docker network create --subnet 203.0.113.0/24 --gateway 203.0.113.254 iptastic Then started a new container and assigned it to the new network with a fixed IP address like this: docker run --net iptastic --ip 203.0.113.2 -d -P --name test_sshd eg_sshd With regards to IP routing to the new container from my Mac OS, what interface is used by Docker for Mac for this ?
