network inspect

Usage:  docker network inspect [OPTIONS] NETWORK [NETWORK...]

Display detailed information on one or more networks

Options:
  -f, --format string   Format the output using the given Go template
      --help            Print usage

Returns information about one or more networks. By default, this command renders all results in a JSON object. For example, if you connect two containers to the default bridge network:

$ sudo docker run -itd --name=container1 busybox
f2870c98fd504370fb86e59f32cd0753b1ac9b69b7d80566ffc7192a82b3ed27

$ sudo docker run -itd --name=container2 busybox
bda12f8922785d1f160be70736f26c1e331ab8aaf8ed8d56728508f2e2fd4727

The network inspect command shows the containers, by id, in its results. For networks backed by multi-host network driver, such as Overlay, this command also shows the container endpoints in other hosts in the cluster. These endpoints are represented as "ep-{endpoint-id}" in the output. However, for swarm-scoped networks, only the endpoints that are local to the node are shown.

You can specify an alternate format to execute a given template for each result. Go's text/template package describes all the details of the format.

$ sudo docker network inspect bridge

Returns the information about the user-defined network:

For swarm mode overlay networks network inspect also shows the IP address and node name of the peers. Peers are the nodes in the swarm cluster which have at least one task attached to the network. Node name is of the format <hostname>-<unique ID>.
