Hi

Stock nginx built into Synology DSM won’t cut it, so I decided to install Nginx Proxy Manager. Before doing so, I created a macvlan and assigned the NPM container to use the assigned IP. Once install is finished, and I try to launch NPM, it fails to load. I tried the same install without macvlan, and it works and loads just fine. I have installed many other containers on macvlan, so I know what I am doing and have the knowledge and experience, but I have never run into this before where there seems to be a conflict I am not aware of.

Help? Anyone?

    Okay, so here’s where I’m confused. From my understanding you say all I did is create a docker network and I need to create a macvlan but the ‘npm_network’ that I created literally says macvlan beside it in the network tab of either container manager or portainer. Even the command literally says ‘create macvlan’ so I am confused why you say that’s not a macvlan and only a docker network.
    Am I making sense? Also, two other outdated guides ive seen on this describe it the same way. The way you describe it is a first that I’ve seen. Not saying you’re wrong, but there’s certainly a difference I’m noticing.

      Those other guides assume you already have a macvlan and want to use docker on it. Like I said, not many complete guides out there. Mine is the most comprehensive you’ll find.

      The gist of it is, you create a macvlan network on your NAS then you place a docker network on that macvlan network.
