Is this a docs issue?

  • My issue is about the documentation content or website

Type of issue

Information is incorrect

Description

The tutorial for setting up a dual stack level 3 IPVLAN is missing documentation that you need to state --ipv6 in the setup for the network. If you don't do this, the docker daemon will default to EnableIPv6: false, even though you specified a IPV6 subnet. Making you question your sanity if you're missing something until you try an endless amount of random things that make sense and eventually arrive to the solution stated above.

I tested and verified my solution above, and then tested it using the tutorial's tests for insuring there is network functionality, and verified it now works.

Location

https://docs.docker.com/network/drivers/ipvlan/

Suggestion

Please tell the user to add --ipv6 when creating the network in the tutorials. Thank you.
