# NAME
docker \- Docker image and container command line interface
# SYNOPSIS
**docker** [OPTIONS] COMMAND [arg...]
# DESCRIPTION
**docker** has two distinct functions. It is used for starting the Docker
daemon and to run the CLI (i.e., to command the daemon to manage images,
containers etc.) So **docker** is both a server, as a daemon, and a client
to the daemon, through the CLI.
To run the Docker daemon you do not specify any of the commands listed below but
must specify the **-d** option. The other options listed below are for the
daemon only.
The Docker CLI has over 30 commands. The commands are listed below and each has
its own man page which explain usage and arguments.
To see the man page for a command run **man docker <command>**.
# OPTIONS
**-D**=*true*|*false*
Enable debug mode. Default is false.
**-H**, **--host**=[unix:///var/run/docker.sock]: tcp://[host:port] to bind or
unix://[/path/to/socket] to use.
The socket(s) to bind to in daemon mode specified using one or more
tcp://host:port, unix:///path/to/socket, fd://* or fd://socketfd.
**--api-enable-cors**=*true*|*false*
Enable CORS headers in the remote API. Default is false.
**-b**=""
Attach containers to a pre\-existing network bridge; use 'none' to disable container networking
**--bip**=""
Use the provided CIDR notation address for the dynamically created bridge (docker0); Mutually exclusive of \-b
**-d**=*true*|*false*
Enable daemon mode. Default is false.
**--dns**=""
Force Docker to use specific DNS servers
**-g**=""
Path to use as the root of the Docker runtime. Default is `/var/lib/docker`.
**--fixed-cidr**=""
IPv4 subnet for fixed IPs (ex: 10.20.0.0/16); this subnet must be nested in the bridge subnet (which is defined by \-b or \-\-bip)
**--icc**=*true*|*false*
Enable inter\-container communication. Default is true.
**--ip**=""
Default IP address to use when binding container ports. Default is `0.0.0.0`.
**--ip-masq**=*true*|*false*
Enable IP masquerading for bridge's IP range. Default is true.
**--iptables**=*true*|*false*
Disable Docker's addition of iptables rules. Default is true.
**-l**, **--log-level**="*debug*|*info*|*error*|*fatal*""
Set the logging level. Default is `info`.
**--mtu**=VALUE

**--registry-mirror=<scheme>://<host>
Prepend a registry mirror to be used for image pulls. May be specified multiple times.
**-s**=""
Force the Docker runtime to use a specific storage driver.
**-v**=*true*|*false*
Print version information and quit. Default is false.
**--selinux-enabled**=*true*|*false*
Enable selinux support. Default is false. SELinux does not presently support the BTRFS storage driver.
