sending udp broadcast from a docker container

问题

I'm having a few docker containers (Using docker-compose and a single network - network-sol)

One of the containers is a Spring Boot application that sends UDP broadcast to the local network. 255.255.255.255 fails because It's the local broadcast address of network-sol

How can I broadcast UDP messages such as the "top local network" Will get those packets? Do i have to use directed broadcast address for that?

P.S

broadcast works if the application is deployed outside of docker (part of the local network

回答1:

You should either run the service defined in your docker-compose.yml file with network_mode: host.

Alternatively you can publish the port of the container you intended to communicate with by publishing it using the following configuration. Note that the /udp is required for UDP communication to work.

service:
  ports:
    - "8080:8080/udp"
