Docker macvlan network, unable to access internet


You might want to start by reading up on simple routing concepts or subnets and routing

How do I create a macvlan docker network if my gateway is out of my subnet?

A gateway address must be on the same subnet as an interface. To use this new subnet you will need to use up one of the IP addresses and assign it somewhere on the host as a gateway.

Subnet routing to a bridge network.

From the hosting screen shot, the 88.99.114.16/28 subnet has been setup to route via your host 88.99.102.103. You need to create an interface somewhere on your host to use as the gateway if you want Docker to use the rest of the IP addresses in the subnet.

Create a bridge network for Docker to use, the bridge will be assigned the gateway address 88.99.114.17

docker network create \  --driver=bridge \  --subnet 88.99.114.16/28 \  --gateway=88.99.114.17 \  name0

You may also need to enable IP forwarding for routing to work. Configure ip forwarding in /etc/sysctl.conf:

net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

and Apply the new setting

sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf

Then run a container on the new bridge with your routed network should be able to access the gateway and the internet

docker run --net=name0 --rm busybox \  sh -c "ip ad sh && ping -c 4 88.99.114.17 && wget api.ipify.org"

You may need to allow access into the subnet in iptables, depending on your default FORWARD policy

iptables -I DOCKER -d 88.99.114.16/28 -j ACCEPT

Services on the subnet will be accessible from the outside world

docker run --net=name0 busybox \  nc -lp 80 -e echo -e "HTTP/1.0 200 OK\nContent-Length: 3\n\nHi\n"

Then outside

No need for macvlan interface mapping.

How do I run a container using macvlan network when I have only IP address but no mac address?

macvlan is use to map a physical/host interface into a container. As you don't have a physical interface for these addresses it will be hard to map one into a container.
