NAME

       podman-network-connect - Connect a container to a network

SYNOPSIS

       podman network connect [options] network container

DESCRIPTION

       Connects a container to a network. A container can be connected to a network by name or by
       ID.  Once connected, the container can communicate  with  other  containers  in  the  same
       network.

OPTIONS

   --alias=name
       Add network-scoped alias for the container. If the network has DNS enabled (podman network
       inspect -f {{.DNSEnabled}} <NAME>), these aliases can be used for name resolution  on  the
       given  network.  Multiple --alias options may be specified as input.  NOTE: When using CNI
       a container will only have access to aliases on the first  network  that  it  joins.  This
       limitation does not exist with netavark/aardvark-dns.

   --ip=address
       Set a static ipv4 address for this container on this network.

   --ip6=address
       Set a static ipv6 address for this container on this network.

   --mac-address=address
       Set a static mac address for this container on this network.

EXAMPLE

       Connect a container named web to a network named test

              podman network connect test web

       Connect a container name web to a network named test with two aliases: web1 and web2

              podman network connect --alias web1 --alias web2 test web

       Connect a container name web to a network named test with a static ip.

              podman network connect --ip 10.89.1.13 test web
