 You can pause, restart, and stop containers that are connected to a network.
 Paused containers remain connected and a revealed by a `network inspect`. When
 the container is stopped, it does not appear on the network until you restart
 it. The container's IP address is not guaranteed to remain the same when a

 To verify the container is connected, use the `docker network inspect` command. Use `docker network disconnect` to remove a container from the network.
