Starting a Transport Bridge in a Docker Container

To start a transport bridge, use the Docker command line specified in this task.

Prerequisites

  • Docker must already be installed on the host computer.
  • A Docker image that includes the transport bridge executable must be loaded into your Docker environment on the host computer.

    Use the pre-built Docker image ftl-tibbridge.

Procedure

  1. Ensure that an agent is running on the host computer.
  2. Start the transport bridge container.
    docker run -d ftl-tibbridge -rs discover:// -n bridge_name
    Optional command line arguments of the transport bridge could refer to files. If so, make those files available inside the container, for example, using Docker's -v parameter.
