I use nftables to set my firewall rules. I typically manually configure the rules myself. Recently, I just happened to dump the ruleset, and, much to my surprise, my config was gone, and it was replaced with an enourmous amount of extremely cryptic firewall rules. After a quick examination of the rules, I found that it was Docker that had modified them. And after some brief research, I found a number of open issues, just like this one, of people complaining about this behaviour. I think it’s an enourmous security risk to have Docker silently do this by default.

I have heard that Podman doesn’t suffer from this issue, as it is daemonless. If that is true, I will certainly be switching from Docker to Podman.

    If you are talking about the IP address then just add a static address, no? I do it anyway in my docker compose:

    ...
    networks:
      traefik.net:
        ipv4_address: 10.10.10.99

networks:
    traefik.net:
      name: traefik-net
      external: true

    I’m not an expert so maybe I’m wrong, if so do not hesitate to correct me !

    EDIT: If the IP address doesn’t change, you do not need to change to routing and iptables/nftables rules. ??
