• Monitor a container status and activity on your system
• Create a new container
• Start or stop a container
• Export and import a container
• Modify a container
• Delete a container
• Configure multiple IP addresses for a container
This section provides an overview to introduce the basic operations of the Container Manager. More
information is included with the Help subsystem included with the Container Manager.
