Combine network hardware and software resources and network functionality into a single software-based management entity, a virtual network
host
The host option is used to make the interface look like they are running on the host itself. It allows the Virtual Network Interface greater network access than it can normally get.
If you use host then you’ll get all ports listening on the host. This means you will need to check the services you runninf closely (especially if it’s not yours, e.g. an official one provided by a software project) to make sure you don’t inadvertently expose extra services on the network.
| With this option you can access the other participants in the network and vice versa from your computer |
container
A container option is used to isolate the services from different container and the host itself
| With this option you can NOT access the other participants in the network and vice versa from your computer |
share app
You can create applications and attach them to this network.
