LAN DHCP assigned ipv4 and ipv6 for each container

General
1

Hello,

Background :
I want to run multiple containers like new devices on the LAN and want to control them with my phone.
I already have a DHCP server to offer IPs.

Goal :
For each container I would like a dynamic DHCP assigned ipv4 and ipv6 without giving any IP informations of the LAN.
I want a container getting his IP like the host at his first connexion or like new device on the LAN.

Os:
Ubuntu for host and containers.

Thanks,
Tom.

Your goal does not allign with doker’s feature set.

Non of the solutions I am aware of work without knowing details about your network, neither for ipv4 and especialy not with ipv6.

I am aware that a docker MACVLAN network would at least allow to use an ip-range within your LAN subnet for your conatiners, but docker will still try to provide ips for them using its own dhcp server - the recommendation is to use an ip-range outside your networks dhcp servers ip-range.

When it commes to ipv6, you will have to configure a fixed prefix in /etc/docker/daemon.json in order to have ipv6 addresses.
