January 7, 20206 yr When I move files across the network and fully saturate my eth0 connection the docker container network performance suffers. I'd have a 4x NIC card I'd like to put the docker traffic on. From what I've read this isn't possible if both of the NICs use the same gateway. I only have one subnet on my network though. What is a good approach for separating unRAID traffic from docker?
January 8, 20206 yr I too would like to do this. I have tried in the past with my quad nic and the outbound traffic from docker always goes out eth0 (my onboard nic) regardless.
January 8, 20206 yr Went down this rabbit hole a bit. Not sure if this will help you. On mine, I have a 10GB as my "main" link eth0. Then eth3 is a 1GB nic. I attached the 1GB nic to an extra port on my router, and made a new interface and allowed the two subnets to talk to one another, and I plan on separating where each subnets WAN traffic goes. But, a by-product is I can use either br0 or br3 for dockers for them to go to either nic. Either that, or just bond all your available bandwidth and call it a day.
