In this blog, Ive covered an introduction to Docker Network.

It allows you to attach a container to as many networks as you like.

This model standardizes the steps required to provide networking for containers using multiple network drivers.

Docker Network Bridge Software Bridge That

Bridge network uses a software bridge that allows containers connected to the same bridge network to communicate.

Bridge networks used on containers that are running on the same Docker daemon host.

The bridge network creates a private internal isolated network to the host so containers on this network can communicate.

This has the advantage of providing maximum portability across various cloud and on-premises networks.

By default, the Overlay network is encrypted with the AES algorithm.

Docker Network Bridge Full TCPIp Stack

By using the macvlan network driver to assign a MAC address to each container, also allow having full TCPIp stack.

You can isolate your macvlan networks using different physical network interfaces.

This is used in legacy applications which require MAC address.
