docker --net vs --network

i can't seem to find a good explanation for the reason behind using --net vs --network with docker.
--help doesn't show --net but only shows --network, can somebody please explain the difference ?

Thank you !

Solution

  • --network and --net options in the Docker are the same and work similarly. But --net is shorter in use.
