Networks

Manage Docker networks in Arcane, including topology and ports views.

Use the Networks page to create, inspect, and remove Docker networks on the selected host. Ports shows published ports across the host; Topology shows how containers connect.

Distinguish application networks from Docker’s predefined networks.

Browse networks

Section titled “Browse networks”

Open Networks in the sidebar. The table shows each network’s name, driver, subnet, and gateway.

Create a network

Section titled “Create a network”
  1. Click Create Network and enter a name.
  2. Optional: pick a driver (bridge, overlay, etc.) and set subnet, gateway, and advanced options. IP Range limits container addresses to a CIDR range, such as 172.20.0.128/25 within a 172.20.0.0/24 subnet.
  3. Click Create.

Inspect a network

Section titled “Inspect a network”

Click a network’s name to see its ID, driver, subnet, gateway, and attached containers with their assigned IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

Remove a network

Section titled “Remove a network”
  1. Open the row’s dropdown and click the trash icon.
  2. Confirm.

Ports view

Section titled “Ports view”

Open Ports from the Networks area to see which ports are published to the host, which containers expose ports without publishing them, and which host:port combinations are taken. Search, sort, and page across the whole environment.

Topology view

Section titled “Topology view”

Topology draws an interactive graph of Docker networks, their attached containers, and how they relate.

Follow the connections between application containers and Docker networks.
