Experimental: Docker network driver plugins
Docker supports network driver plugins via LibNetwork. Network driver plugins are implemented as "remote drivers" for LibNetwork, which shares plugin infrastructure with Docker. In effect this means that network driver plugins are activated in the same way as other plugins, and use the same kind of protocol.
Using network driver plugins
The means of installing and running a network driver plugin will depend on the particular plugin.
Once running however, network driver plugins are used just like the built-in network drivers: by being mentioned as a driver in network-oriented Docker commands. For example,
docker network create -d weave mynet
Some network driver plugins are listed in plugins.md
The network thus created is owned by the plugin, so subsequent commands referring to that network will also be run through the plugin.
Network driver plugin protocol
The network driver protocol, additional to the plugin activation call, is documented as part of LibNetwork: https://github.com/docker/libnetwork/blob/master/docs/remote.md.
