related to swarm services. When you create a swarm service and do not
  connect it to a user-defined overlay network, it connects to the `ingress`
  network by default.
- A bridge network called `docker_gwbridge`, which connects the individual
  Docker daemon to the other daemons participating in the swarm.

### Create an overlay network

To create an overlay network, specify the `overlay` driver when using the
`docker network create` command:

```console
$ docker network create \
  --driver overlay \
  my-network
```

The above command doesn't specify any custom options, so Docker assigns a
subnet and uses default options. You can see information about the network using
`docker network inspect`.

When no containers are connected to the overlay network, its configuration is
not very exciting:

```console
$ docker network inspect my-network
[
    {
        "Name": "my-network",
        "Id": "fsf1dmx3i9q75an49z36jycxd",
        "Created": "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z",
        "Scope": "swarm",
        "Driver": "overlay",
        "EnableIPv6": false,
        "IPAM": {
            "Driver": "default",
            "Options": null,
            "Config": []
        },
        "Internal": false,
        "Attachable": false,
        "Ingress": false,
        "Containers": null,
        "Options": {
            "com.docker.network.driver.overlay.vxlanid_list": "4097"
        },
        "Labels": null
    }
]
```

In the above output, notice that the driver is `overlay` and that the scope is
`swarm`, rather than `local`, `host`, or `global` scopes you might see in
other types of Docker networks. This scope indicates that only hosts which are
participating in the swarm can access this network.

The network's subnet and gateway are dynamically configured when a service
connects to the network for the first time. The following example shows
the same network as above, but with three containers of a `redis` service
connected to it.

```console
$ docker network inspect my-network
[
    {
        "Name": "my-network",
        "Id": "fsf1dmx3i9q75an49z36jycxd",

            "Options": null,
            "Config": [

                    "Gateway": "10.0.0.1"
                }
            ]
        },
