Status

This project is somewhat deprecated, in favor of newer L2 networking features of docker v1.10.x. Basically if you want L2 Bridge networking (like VMWare 'Bridged' networking mode)... that can be achieved with core docker features now. And that is better ways, less buggy. So for L2 external bridging, for your containers to appear on LAN, please try one of these solutions instead.

There are also other new networking features since docker v1.10.x, which replace other parts of the pipework feature set. Such as overlay networks etc.

Otherwise if you still require some more specialized networking setup, and it still cant be achieved with newest Docker networking APIs, then I guess maybe continue to use pipework and its unique features. If there is continued need, then this docker image may benefit from a new maintainer. No longer using Pipework for myself in favor of the new Docker networking stuff. Its very good, I recommend to try it! :)
