podman-network - Manage Podman networks

.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
\fBpodman network\fP \fIsubcommand\fP

.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The network command manages networks for Podman.

.PP
Podman supports two network backends Netavark
and CNI. Support for netavark was added in Podman v4.0. To configure
the network backend use the \fB\fCnetwork_backend\fRkey under the \fB\fC[Network]\fR in
\fBcontainers.conf(5)\fP\&.
New systems should use netavark by default, to check what backed is used run
\fB\fCpodman info --format {{.Host.NetworkBackend}}\fR\&.

.PP
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.
