Lab 2.0: Docker

Summary

This lab was extremely useful for me because I have tried to install Docker before on a fedora server and didn’t understand anything at all. So being able to go over it and actually have well formatted steps I can now say I can understand somewhat how to use Docker and Docker-Compose.

Ubuntu Network Configuration

  1. Get network adapter name by using ip addr
  2. Edit the file /etc/netplan/00-installer-config.yaml
  3. Edit the file to look like below without ()
network:
  version: 2
  renderer: networkd
  ethernets:
    (**adapter name**):
     addresses: [(**ip**)/(**subnet**)]
     gateway4: gateway
     nameservers:
       addresses: [(**dns server ip**)]
  1. now run sudo netplan apply or sudo netplan try (if unsure) hit Enter when prompted
