docker how to connect to external DNS












0















I have docker container (lets say A) running on a host (lets say X). I would like the container to be able to have outbound connectivity to a DNS (ie ELB) that host X already has access to.



ie
container A ---> want to be able to curl an external ELB DNS endpoint...problem is container unable to resolve it!



host X ---> is able to curl the external ELB DNS endpoint already

  • this only mentions ip, does it mean all ports on that ip are mapped? what if same port is on the ip and in the docker container?

Do either of these work for you?



$ docker run --dns 10.0.0.2 busybox nslookup google.com


Or edit your /etc/docker/daemon.json similar to:



{
"dns": ["10.0.0.2", "8.8.8.8"]
}


and restart the docker service

$ sudo systemctl docker restart
