# Experimental: Networking and Services
In this feature:
- `network` become a first class objects in the Docker UI
This is an experimental feature. For information on installing and using experimental features, see [the experimental feature overview](experimental.md).
## Using Networks
Usage: docker network [OPTIONS] COMMAND [OPTIONS] [arg...]
Commands:
create Create a network
rm Remove a network
ls List all networks
info Display information of a network
Run 'docker network COMMAND --help' for more information on a command.
--help=false Print usage
The `docker network` command is used to manage Networks.
To create a network, `docker network create foo`. You can also specify a driver
if you have loaded a networking plugin e.g `docker network create -d <plugin_name> foo`
$ docker network create foo
aae601f43744bc1f57c515a16c8c7c4989a2cad577978a32e6910b799a6bccf6
$ docker network create -d overlay bar
d9989793e2f5fe400a58ef77f706d03f668219688ee989ea68ea78b990fa2406
`docker network ls` is used to display the currently configured networks
$ docker network ls
NETWORK ID NAME TYPE
d367e613ff7f none null
bd61375b6993 host host
cc455abccfeb bridge bridge
aae601f43744 foo bridge
d9989793e2f5 bar overlay
To get detailed information on a network, you can use the `docker network info`
command.
$ docker network info foo
Network Id: aae601f43744bc1f57c515a16c8c7c4989a2cad577978a32e6910b799a6bccf6
Name: foo
Type: null
If you no longer have need of a network, you can delete it with `docker network rm`
$ docker network rm bar
bar
$ docker network ls
NETWORK ID NAME TYPE
aae601f43744 foo bridge
d367e613ff7f none null
bd61375b6993 host host
cc455abccfeb bridge bridge
Currently the only way this network can be used to connect container is via default network-mode.
Docker daemon supports a configuration flag `--default-network` which takes configuration value of format `NETWORK:DRIVER`, where,
`NETWORK` is the name of the network created using the `docker network create` command and
`DRIVER` represents the in-built drivers such as bridge, overlay, container, host and none. or Remote drivers via Network Plugins.
When a container is created and if the network mode (`--net`) is not specified, then this default network will be used to connect
the container. If `--default-network` is not specified, the default network will be the `bridge` driver.
