Click Apply button, and lomorage container should start running now, and you can visit the app from mobile clients.

5. MAC vlan docker network #

Previous steps uses default docker bridge network, thus, user need manually input client ip from mobile client. To enable MDNS feature, user can setup mac vlan docker network, and associate it with the container, then mobile client can auto discover lomorage app.

To create mac vlan network, please make sure you have subnet, gateway, interface name and new static ip for lomorage container. Assume they are

• subnet: 192.168.1.0/24
• gateway: 192.168.1.1
• interface name: eth0
• new static ip: 192.168.1.100

Use ssh to login Synology, and run docker network create -d macvlan --subnet=192.168.1.0/24 --gateway=192.168.1.1 --ip-range=192.168.1.100/32 -o parent=eth0 lomorage to create lomorage network. After that, if you run docker network ls, you should see the new docker network

Go to Synology docker web page, click Network tab from sidebar, the lomorage network should show up now.

Stop running lomorage container, click Edit button. In Network tab page, add new lomorage network, and remove bridge network, then click apply, and start container. Now your mobile client should be able to auto discover the backend application.
