NetVisor UNUM High Capacity User Guide: 2022.6.3.2

Appendix B (cont'd)

Configure Docker0 IP

UNUM uses a default docker 

IP

 address of 

172.17.251.1/24

 for internal communication.

Warning:

 In the majority of deployments, there is no need to change this address.

However, if you use the default range as the UNUM management network there could be network conflicts

within your network. Therefore, you have the ability to modify the 

docker0

 interface

 IP

 address using

Option 2

 - 

Configure docker0 IP

.

UNUM - Configure Docker0 & VCFnet Bridge IP

Select 

Option 2 - Configure docker0 IP.

Enter the desired 

IP

 address range and mask. (Shown below as example only.)

Enter the sudo password.

UNUM updates the 

docker0

 

IP

 address, stopping and restarting services.
