Docker - how to set iface name when creating a new network

Viewed 14793

After creating a new network with:

docker network create test-net

and running ifconfig on the host, a new interface name is being listed:

br-f2b630e4e141 Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 02:42:48:fe:cb:86  
          inet addr:172.18.0.1  Bcast:0.0.0.0  Mask:255.255.0.0
          UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)
  1. Is there a way to create this network and specify the iface name, for example docker1 or test-net?

  2. In case of docker-compose, can we also specify iface name inside the docker-compose.yml file?
