## NAME
podman\-network-create - Create a Podman CNI network

## SYNOPSIS
**podman network create**  [*options*] name

## DESCRIPTION
Create a CNI-network configuration for use with Podman. At the time of this writing, the only network
type that can be created is a *bridge* network.

If no options are provided, Podman will assign a free subnet and name for your network.

Upon completion of creating the network, Podman will display the path to the newly added network file.

## OPTIONS
**-d**, , **--driver**

Driver to manage the network (default "bridge").  Currently on `bridge` is supported.

**--gateway**

Define a gateway for the subnet. If you want to provide a gateway address, you must also provide a
*subnet* option.

**--internal**

Restrict external access of this network

**--ip-range**

Allocate container IP from a range.  The range must be a complete subnet and in CIDR notation.  The *ip-range* option
must be used with a *subnet* option.

**--subnet**

The subnet in CIDR notation.

## EXAMPLE

Create a network with no options
```
# podman network create
/etc/cni/net.d/cni-podman-4.conflist
```

Create a network named *newnet* that uses *192.5.0.0/16* for its subnet.
```
# podman network create --subnet 192.5.0.0/16 newnet
/etc/cni/net.d/newnet.conflist
```

Create a network named *newnet* that uses *192.168.33.0/24* and defines a gateway as *192.168.133.3*
```
# podman network create --subnet 192.168.33.0/24 --gateway 192.168.33.3 newnet
/etc/cni/net.d/newnet.conflist
```

Create a network that uses a *192.168.55.0/24** subnet and has an IP address range of *192.168.55.129 - 192.168.55.254*.
```
# podman network create --subnet 192.168.55.0/24 --ip-range 192.168.55.128/25
/etc/cni/net.d/cni-podman-5.conflist
```
