Chapter 4. Network Plugins
In this chapter, we are going to be looking at the next type of plugin: networking. We will discuss how to make use of the new networking tools introduced with Docker 1.9, along with third-party tools that add even more functionality to the already powerful built-in tools. The two main tools that we are going to look at are as follows:
- Docker Overlay Network: https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/networking/dockernetworks/
- Weave: https://weave.works/
Note
This chapter assumes that you are using Docker 1.10+, some commands may not work in the previous versions.
