Description

The current overlay driver uses VXLAN but does not allow specifying any VXLAN options like:

  • vni
  • multicast group

Other network drivers are quite configurable, the overlay one seems to be restricted on that aspect.

TLDR: I have a VXLAN interface on host A (docker not installed) that wants to communicate with containers on an overlay network on host B (w/ docker).

My local interface is create as:

ip link add vxlan100 type vxlan id 100 group 239.1.1.1 dev eth0 dstport 4789
ip addr add 10.0.0.2/24 dev vxlan100
ip link set up dev vxlan100
