Overview
Connects a container to a network. A container can be connected to a network by name or by ID. Once connected, the container can communicate with other containers in the same network.
Options
--alias=name
Add network-scoped alias for the container. If the network has DNS enabled (podman network inspect -f {{.DNSEnabled}} <NAME>), these aliases can be used for name resolution on the given network in addition to the container name. Multiple --alias options may be specified as input. See DNS NOTES in podman-network(1).
--ip=address
Set a static ipv4 address for this container on this network.
--ip6=address
Set a static ipv6 address for this container on this network.
--mac-address=address
Set a static mac address for this container on this network.
Examples

podman network connect test web

podman network connect --ip 10.89.1.13 test web
Connect specified container to named network with a static mac address:
