 # Docker network driver plugins
 
-Docker supports network driver plugins via
-[LibNetwork](https://github.com/docker/libnetwork). Network driver plugins are
-implemented as "remote drivers" for LibNetwork, which shares plugin
-infrastructure with Docker. In effect this means that network driver plugins
-are activated in the same way as other plugins, and use the same kind of
-protocol.
+Docker network plugins enable Docker deployments to be extended to support a
+wide range of networking technologies, such as VXLAN, IPVLAN, MACVLAN or
+something completely different. Network driver plugins are supported via the
+LibNetwork project. Each plugin is implemented asa  "remote driver" for
+LibNetwork, which shares plugin infrastructure with Docker. Effectively,
+network driver plugins are activated in the same way as other plugins, and use
+the same kind of protocol.
 
 ## Using network driver plugins
 
-The means of installing and running a network driver plugin will depend on the
-particular plugin.
+The means of installing and running a network driver plugin depend on the
+particular plugin. So, be sure to install your plugin according to the
+instructions obtained from the plugin developer.
 
 Once running however, network driver plugins are used just like the built-in
 network drivers: by being mentioned as a driver in network-oriented Docker
 commands. For example,
 
-    docker network create -d weave mynet
+    $ docker network create --driver weave mynet
 
 Some network driver plugins are listed in [plugins](plugins.md)
 
-The network thus created is owned by the plugin, so subsequent commands
-referring to that network will also be run through the plugin such as,
+The `mynet` network is now owned by `weave`, so subsequent commands
+referring to that network will be sent to the plugin,
 
-    docker run --net=mynet busybox top
+    $ docker run --net=mynet busybox top
 
-## Network driver plugin protocol
 
-The network driver protocol, additional to the plugin activation call, is
-documented as part of LibNetwork:
+## Write a network plugin
+
+Network plugins implement the [Docker plugin
+API](https://docs.docker.com/extend/plugin_api/) and the network plugin protocol
