[Help] assign docker dedicated DHCP ip

[samw5]

I'm trying to figure out if it would be possible to assign a docker container a dedicated ip on my DHCP subnet.
I know I can bridge it but I have router rule base routing that I need to apply to the docker container so need it to have a lan ip. I would rather not waste a dedicated nas port to use a host ip for this.

I hope this makes sense.

You can create a macvlan network and then specify the network and IP when starting the container. Docker cannot automatically obtain an IP from the DHCP server (router) directly, so you need to manually specify an IP and exclude this IP from the router's address pool.

Perfect that will work!
