containers.ipam.driver
For use with containers only. Specifies the IPAM driver to be used when
adding a Containers network component to a blueprint. The supported
values depend on the drivers installed in the container host environment in
which they are used. For example, a supported value might be infoblox
or calico depending on the IPAM plug-ins that are installed on the
container host.
This property name and value are case-sensitive. The property value is not
validated when you add it. If the specified driver does not exist on the
container host at provisioning time, an error message is returned and
provisioning fails.
containers.network.driver
For use with containers only. Specifies the network driver to be used when
adding a Containers network component to a blueprint. The supported
values depend on the drivers installed in the container host environment in
which they are used. By default, Docker-supplied network drivers include
bridge, overlay, and macvlan, while Virtual Container Host (VCH)-supplied
network drivers include the bridge driver. Third-party network drivers such
as weave and calico might also be available, depending on what network
plug-ins are installed on the container host.
This property name and value are case-sensitive. The property value is not
validated when you add it. If the specified driver does not exist on the
container host at provisioning time, an error message is returned and
provisioning fails.
