Usage: docker network connect [OPTIONS] NETWORK CONTAINER

Connects a container to a network

--help=false Print usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Connects a running container to a network. This enables instant communication with other containers belonging to the same network.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
$ docker network create -d overlay multi-host-network
|
||
|
|
$ docker run -d --name=container1 busybox top
|
||
|
|
$ docker network connect multi-host-network container1
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
the container will be connected to the network that is created and managed by the driver (multi-host overlay driver in the above example) or external network plugins.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Multiple containers can be connected to the same network and the containers in the same network will start to communicate with each other. If the driver/plugin supports multi-host connectivity, then the containers connected to the same multi-host network will be able to communicate seamlessly.
