How to assign IPv6 address with docker-compose

问题

I am using docker 1.12.1 on Ubuntu 16.04, and docker-compose 1.8.1. I am trying to get the Compose file from https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/#ipv4-address-ipv6-address to run. For reference, I created docker-compose.yml with the following content:

version: '2'

services:
  app:
    image: busybox
    command: ifconfig
    networks:
      app_net:
        ipv4_address: 172.16.238.10
        ipv6_address: 2001:3984:3989::10

networks:
  app_net:
    driver: bridge
    driver_opts:
      com.docker.network.enable_ipv6: "true"
    ipam:
      driver: default
      config:
      - subnet: 172.16.238.0/24
        gateway: 172.16.238.1
      - subnet: 2001:3984:3989::/64
        gateway: 2001:3984:3989::1

Now, running docker-compose up produces

The IPv6 address is not assigned.

I already tried:

1. Starting the docker daemon with --ipv6
2. Starting the docker daemon with --ipv6 --fixed-cidr-v6="2001:3984:3989::/64"
   • Note that docker run -it busybox ifconfig actually gives me an IPv6 address here (from the --fixed-cidr subnet which is assigned to the default bridge network)
3. Using my actual IPv6 subnet instead of the one from the code example, and repeating 2. with this subnet

No success. Any ideas?

回答1:

It turns out this is indeed a docker-compose bug that is going to be fixed in 1.9.0.

Meanwhile, there is a workaround by creating a custom network with the docker network command:

docker network create --subnet=172.16.2.0/24 --gateway=172.16.2.1 --ipv6 --subnet=<myV6Network/subnet> dockerbridge

... which can then be made available inside docker-composed.yml by writing

networks:
  dockerbridge:
    external:
      name: dockerbridge

Yes. Docker compose supports IPv6 protocol and it was introduced into docker engine 1.5 onward. There is still issue with latest compose file format 3.3 so you could use the 2.1 format. Still docker swarm is not mature enough with advance networking configuration and it doesn't support IPv6, hence it is not included under 3.3 fil format. Here is sample example of File,

docker-compose.yml

version: ‘2.1’
services:
  app:
    image: busybox
    command: ping www.google.com
    networks:
      app_net:
        ipv6_address: 2001:3200:3200::20
networks:
  app_net:
    enable_ipv6: true
    driver: bridge
    ipam:
      driver: default
      config:
        - subnet: 2001:3200:3200::/64
          gateway: 2001:3200:3200::1

This docker compose file will create a new network called testping_app_net based on IPv6 network under the subnet 2001:3200:3200::/64 and container should get IPv6 address automatically assigned.

Let us bring up services using docker-compose up and see if the services communicates over IPv6 protocol:

docker-compose up -d

and you could verify the IPv6 address for each container using,

docker exec -it 905 ip addr

You will see that a new container gets IPv6 address – 2001:3200:3200::20 and hence they are able to communicate with each other.

Note : If you want to enable IPv6 on host machine, which by default uses IPv4 address you need to add these two line into the daemon.json under /etc/docker directory:

{
    "ipv6": true,
    "fixed-cidr-v6": "2001:db8:1::/64"
}

and restart the docker daemon by command:

$ sudo systemctl restart docker
