% podman-network(1)
## NAME
-podman\-network - Manage Podman CNI networks
+podman\-network - Manage Podman networks
## SYNOPSIS
**podman network** *subcommand*
## DESCRIPTION
-The network command manages CNI networks for Podman.
+The network command manages networks for Podman.
+
+Podman supports two network backends [Netavark](https://github.com/containers/netavark)
+and [CNI](https://www.cni.dev/). Support for netavark was added in Podman v4.0. To configure
+the network backend use the `network_backend`key under the `[Network]` in
+**[containers.conf(5)](https://github.com/containers/common/blob/master/docs/containers.conf.5.md)**.
+New systems should use netavark by default, to check what backed is used run
+`podman info --format {{.Host.NetworkBackend}}`.
+
+All network commands work for both backends but CNI and Netavark use different config files
+so networks have to be created again after a backend change.
