Kata Containers: The speed of containers, the security of VMs

Does anyone configure other IP ranges in Docker? I know there are other reserved IP ranges you might get away with. There's the CGNAT IP range 100.64.0.0/10, and there's the link-local IP range 169.254.0.0/16. These are unused in most situations and may work fine for Docker networks.

I do. I have a few VLANs and subnets at home.

Docker Compose creates a new network for every project, and eventually overlaps with something important. They are fairly large ranges by default, so you end up taking up a lot of address space fast if you're not careful. This is especially wasteful because some of the Docker networks only contain two hosts, but are (from memory) a /24 or maybe even a /20.

Easier to handle it manually.
