## NAME
podman\-network - Manage Podman networks

## SYNOPSIS
**podman network** *subcommand*

## DESCRIPTION
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.
