Hi Friends,


I am looking for help to configure pxe boot server inside docker container.
as per the below link I am trying but face problem of br0 interface missing and the alternate method without br0 is not under stable by UDP forwarding.

here is the link I am following the steps.
https://github.com/jpetazzo/pxe

In my case pipework will not be able to used as I am not having br0 interface.


Any one have idea regarding PXE inside docker ?


Thank you so much in advance.

Which Linux OS are you using to host docker containers?

Have created 'br0' bridge interface on base host running docker?

The repo which you are using seems quit old. Have you tried using any other repo? e.g. https://github.com/gearmover/pxeserve

Thank you so much for assisting! I am using Ubuntu 14.04 to host docker containers, And yes I have created br0 interface on my host os but its down my network the configuration of my /etc/network/interface as below


#auto eth0
#                iface eth0 inet static
#                address 10.10.2.199
#                network 10.10.0.0
#                  netmask 255.255.0.0
#                   broadcast 10.10.255.255
#                  gateway 10.10.2.1
#                  dns-nameserver 10.10.1.105


iface br0 inet static
      address 10.10.2.199
      netmask 255.255.0.0
      network 10.10.0.0
      broadcast 10.10.255.255
      gateway 10.10.2.1
      bridge_ports eth0
      bridge_stp off
      bridge_fd 0

It is not working I have enabled VT from my BIOS.

I haven't tried any other latest repo I am looking for the repo you have given.

Thanks

Your config looks ok but is your 'br0' interface up? Does it get an IP Address?

Here is a link to configure & check bridge in Ubuntu, http://theurbanpenguin.com/wp/?p=2767
 
 
It is not working I have enabled VT from my BIOS.

Docker is not Virtualization Technology or Hypervisor. It doesn't matter for Docker whether VT is enable or not.
