Network solutions for Docker
Docker networking is:
◦ Still in early stages (not anymore?!)
◦ The default network assigned is a
port on Linux bridge docker0
◦ docker inspect --
format='{{.NetworkSettings}}'
53720b3581be

Network solutions for Docker
What network solutions do we have now?
◦ Docker specific networking (--net=container, -
p and socket)
◦ Bridge + DHCP + VLAN
◦ OVS
◦ Flannel
◦ Weave
◦ Project Calico
◦ SocketPlane
◦ More and more incoming…
◦ Docker 1.7 libnetwork
8

Docker0 bridge
◦ Default network is automatically created when
no additional options “--net“ or “-P” are
specified
◦ Each container is addressed by a static IP
address assigned by Docker
◦ Similar to what we have as default in KVM or
VirtualBox
◦ Host can reach container with IP on the
bridge
◦ However outside traffic cannot reach the
container
9

Docker0 bridge
# iptables -L -t nat -n
…
Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
MASQUERADE all -- 172.17.0.0/16 0.0.0.0/0
…
# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
docker0 8000.56847afe9799 no veth05a3408
vethd88b38d
10

Port mapping
◦ Providing access to the container from
outside by allocating a DNAT port in the
range 49153-65535
◦ Using Linux bridge docker0, but adds iptables
rules for the DNAT
◦ docker run -P -itd nginx
11

Host and container
◦ Give full access of the host network to
container using --net=host
◦ docker run --net=host --name c1 -itd ubuntu
◦ docker exec c1 ifconfig eth0
◦ Give full access to network of the container
XX to a new container YY with --
net=container:XX
◦ docker run --net=container:nginx --name c2 -itd ubuntu
◦ docker exec c2 ifconfig eth0
12

How it’s done “manually”
sudo mkdir -p /var/run/netns
sudo modprobe ip_nat_ftp nf_conntrack_ftp
#Create a bridge
start_bridge () { # args: BRIDGE_NAME
sudo brctl addbr $1 &>/dev/null || return
sudo ip link set $1 up
echo Created bridge: $1
}
13

start_container () {
hostname=$1
image=$2
port=$3
container=${hostname%%.*}
pid=$(docker inspect -f '{{.State.Pid}}' $container 2>/dev/null)
if [ "$?" = "1" ]
then
if [ -n "$port" ]
then netopts="--publish=$port:22"
else netopts="--net=none"
fi
docker run --name=$container --hostname=$hostname
--dns=10.1.1.1 --dns-search=example.com "$netopts"
-d $image
elif [ "$pid" = "0" ]
then
docker start $container >/dev/null
else
return
fi
pid=$(docker inspect -f '{{.State.Pid}}' $container)
sudo rm -f /var/run/netns/$container
sudo ln -s /proc/$pid/ns/net /var/run/netns/$container
echo Container started: $container
}
How it’s done “manually” #2
14

create_interface () {
#
# Given an interface name "www-eth0", create both an interface with
# that name and also a peer that is connected to it. Place the peer
# in the container "www" and give it the name "eth0" there.
#
interface=$1
container=${interface%%-*}
short_name=${interface##*-}
sudo ip link add $interface type veth peer name P &>/dev/null || return
give_interface_to_container P $container $short_name
echo Created interface: $interface
}
give_interface_to_container () { # args: OLD_NAME CONTAINER NEW_NAME
sudo ip link set $1 netns $2
sudo ip netns exec $2 ip link set dev $1 name $3
sudo ip netns exec $2 ip link set $3 up
}
15

bridge_add_interface () {
bridge=$1
interface=$2
sudo brctl addif $bridge $interface &>/dev/null || return
sudo ip link set dev $interface up
echo Bridged interface: $interface
}
16

Build it “manually”
#!/bin/bash
start_container example.com ubuntu
create_interface h1-eth1
bridge_add_interface homeA h1-eth1
sudo ip netns exec example ip addr add
10.11.1.1/32 dev eth0
sudo ip netns exec example ip route add
10.1.1.1/32 dev eth0
sudo ip netns exec example ip route add default
via 10.1.1.1
17

Why it sucks “literally”
◦ BASH is for stuff that just “works”
◦ Doesn’t scale at all
◦ You have to manually change stuff
◦ No error handling
◦ IP “management”
◦ No need for reinventing the wheel
◦ Routing, NATs and VLANs
◦ This stuff won’t work on CoreOS (doh!)
◦ Many other possible reasons
18

CoreOS (cloud-init)
#brigde
- name: 20-br800.netdev
runtime: true
content: |
[NetDev]
Name=br800
Kind=bridge
#vlan
- name: 00-vlan800.netdev
runtime: true
content: |
[NetDev]
Name=vlan800
Kind=vlan
[VLAN]
Id=800
19

CoreOS (cloud-init) #2
#subinterface
- name: 10-eth1.network
runtime: true
content: |
[Match]
Name=eth1
[Network]
DHCP=yes
VLAN=vlan800
#attach
- name: 30-attach.network
runtime: true
content: |
[Match]
Name=vlan800
[Network]
Bridge=br800
20

DHCP + VLAN + Brigde
vconfig add eth0 100
brctl add br100
brctl addif br100 eth0.100
ip link add c1-eth1 type veth peer name P
dhclient on container (issue with --priviliged)
or DOCKER_OPTS=’-e lxc’
then docker run with --lxc.config.*
docker run --net="none" --lxc-conf="lxc.network.type = veth" --lxc-
conf="lxc.network.ipv4 = 192.168.20.30/24" --lxc-conf="lxc.network.ipv4.gateway =
192.168.20.1" --lxc-conf="lxc.network.link = br800" --lxc-conf="lxc.network.name =
eth0" --lxc-conf="lxc.network.flags = up" -d
21

DHCP issue?
Requires trunk!
auto eth0.200
iface eth0.200 inet static
address 10.0.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
iface eth0.201 inet6 static
address 10.0.2.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
iface eth0.202 inet6 static
address 10.0.3.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
22

DHCP issue?
For each subnet...
subnet 10.0.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 10.0.1.10 10.0.1.20;
# you might point some other address
# within that subnet that should be advertised as router
# it does not have to be your linux box
option routers 10.0.1.1;
option broadcast-address 10.0.1.255;
authoritative;
}
23

Description
Extra daemon
Kinda slow
Builds GRE tunnel between
hosts
Manual IP management
Weave
Run
weave launch
C=$(weave run 10.2.1.1/24 -t -
i ubuntu)
weave launch $HOST1
C=$(weave run 10.2.1.2/24 -t -
i ubuntu)
26

Description
Supports policy
No VLANs
No Subnets
You have to specify IP
manually
Projet Calico
Run
docker run -e
CALICO_IP=XXX -itd ubuntu
./calicoctl node --
ip=172.17.8.101 --name
workload-a --tid busybox
./calicoctl profile add PROF_A
./calicoctl profile PROF_A add
workload-a
27

Description
Shipped with CoreOS
Randomly attaches subnets
(randomly) to each flannel
host
Overrides --bip for docker
daemon so every container
will be created just in this
subnet
No VLAN support
No extra parameters with
docker run
How it’s related to the task?
Flannel (CoreOS)
Config
{
"Network": "10.0.0.0/8",
"SubnetLen": 24,
"SubnetMin": "10.10.0.0",
"SubnetMax": "10.99.0.0",
"Backend": {"Type" : "udp",
"Port": 7890}
}
29

Description
Built by French docker
DevOps guy (jpetazzo)
Supports some overrides
Supports DHCP / VLAN
Pipework
Run
docker run -name web1 -d
apache
pipework br1 web1
192.168.12.23/20
pipework br1 $CONTAINERID
192.168.4.25/20@192.168.4.1
pipework eth1
$CONTAINERID dhcp
pipework ovsbr0 $(docker run
-d zerorpcworker) dhcp @10
30

Description
Consul
CoreOS support
DHCP
OVS
VLANs
Strange IP management
(best solution for the task?)
SocketPlane
Run
socketplane network create
web 10.2.0.0/16
socketplane run -n web -itd
ubuntu
31

RPI fanbois
