June 24, 20251 yr Hi all,im using Unraid now since nearly 1 year but im having some trouble with my docker management and would like to ask you for your recommendation.My docker is set to ipvlan and im assigning every docker container its own IP with Custom: br0. This is working fine for me.Where im struggling is the management of the ip addresses of the containers. Right now im assigning every docker container an ip address manuallyby checking other docker allocations at creation time. Here im struggling now. With growing number of containers, deleting containers, adding new new containers, turningcontainers off when not needed its quite hard to figure out which ip is being used or is free again.How are you doing this? I was considering to activate a DHCP pool to let docker take care of it. But I can't find detailed informations about the DHCP in docker.How long are lease times, are there reservations, how can I let the current in use IPs from the docker container switch to DHCP but keep their IP (reservation)?Or is the DHCP in docker maybe a bad idea?How are you handling this?
