Driver to manage the network. Currently `bridge`, `macvlan` and `ipvlan` are supported. Defaults to `bridge`.
As rootless the `macvlan` and `ipvlan` driver have no access to the host network interfaces because rootless networking requires a separate network namespace.

-All drivers accept the `mtu` option. The `mtu` option sets the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) and takes an integer value.

-The `macvlan` and `ipvlan` driver support the following options:
