2016-05-23 02:55:17 +00:00
libnetwork project will follow Docker and Linux philosophy of delivering small, highly modular and composable tools that work well independently.

libnetwork aims to satisfy that composable need for Networking in Containers.
## Short-term Goals
- Modularize the networking logic in Docker Engine and libcontainer in to a single, reusable library
2015-04-23 19:46:35 +00:00
- Replace the networking subsystem of Docker Engine, with libnetwork
- Define a flexible model that allows local and remote drivers to provide networking to containers
2015-05-06 12:07:32 +00:00
- Provide a stand-alone tool "dnet" for managing and testing libnetwork
