Hello Everyone,
I’m currently working on a project where I need to implement VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding) support for Docker containers. The goal is to isolate network traffic for different containers, ensuring that each container operates within its own VRF instance.
I noticed that there have been many discussions on this topic in the past (a few years ago), but I haven’t been able to find complete information anywhere. All I could find is below
This only ensures dockerd is using a specific vrf, but containers are not.
I have a few specific questions:
- Is VRF support natively available in Docker, or does it require additional configuration or third-party tools?
- What is the best approach to associate Docker containers with specific VRF instances?
For example, should I configure VRF on the host and then map it to the containers, or is there a better method?
