如何指定 IBM Containers 的 IP 进行注册

Question

I use Secure Gateway to integrate my apps on Bluemix with On-premise resources. I read the following instruction:

https://new-console.ng.bluemix.net/docs/services/SecureGateway/sg_023.html#sg_033

I successfully setup white list for CF apps. But I can't set IP address for IBM Containers(Docker) because I don't know how to specify Containers' IPs to register ip table of Secure gateway.

Does anyone know how to specify valid ip addresses of IBM Containers?

Regards,

It looks you are specifying the private IP address of your container (172.30.0.5) and what you should do is to bind your container to a public IP address and use this new IP to configure your Secure Gateway.

Here are the steps to bind your container to a public IP address:

1) Optional: request IP (if not done that already)

$ cf ic ip request

2) Optional: if you have already requested IP you can use the following command to see which IPs are available for your organization:

$ cf ic ip list

3) Bind an IP address to your container

$ cf ic ip bind <ip_address> <container id>

After that you have to wait a few minutes to wait for it to complete and then you can use the public IP address in the Secure Gateway.

You can do this in the UI as well, just select the pull down menu after the Public IP and select one available from the list:
