Custom docker network with virtual bridge separate from host.


Recommended Posts

Currently i have a Nginx Proxy Manager docker sitting on its own reverseproxy docker network, this does a port translate from 18443 to 443, within this network i have multiple dockers communicating through DNS on its own internal virtual switch. Now to get to NPM i have my router taking the DNS queries and sending them to a virtual IP on the router to port translate to 18443. 

 

What id like to achieve is moving the reverseproxy docker network away from the host network bridge 192.168.1.10 and give it a virtual bridge ip of say 192.168.1.15, this way i can just send the DNS resolutions straight to NPM with no forwards or port translations, NPM could operate on 443 and unraid could use 443 for webui. I also like the idea of having the images handled by NPM on its own network so i cant just give NPM the ip for this would remove the reverseproxy docker network.

 

How i currently have it works fine, its just seems redundant and messy doing it this way.
