Remove all unused networks
API 1.25+ The client and daemon API must both be at least 1.25 to use this command. Use the docker version
command on the client to check your client and daemon API versions.
docker network prune [OPTIONS]
Name, shorthand | Default | Description |
--filter | Provide filter values (e.g. ‘until= | |
--force , -f | Do not prompt for confirmation |
Command | Description |
---|---|
docker network | Manage networks |
Command | Description |
docker network connect | Connect a container to a network |
docker network create | Create a network |
docker network disconnect | Disconnect a container from a network |
docker network inspect | Display detailed information on one or more networks |
docker network ls | List networks |
docker network prune | Remove all unused networks |
docker network rm | Remove one or more networks |
Remove all unused networks. Unused networks are those which are not referenced by any containers.
$ docker network prune
WARNING! This will remove all networks not used by at least one container.

The filtering flag (--filter
) format is of “key=value”. If there is more than one filter, then pass multiple flags (e.g., --filter "foo=bar" --filter "bif=baz"
)
The currently supported filters are:
<timestamp>
) - only remove networks created before given timestamplabel=<key>
, label=<key>=<value>
, label!=<key>
, or label!=<key>=<value>
) - only remove networks with (or without, in case label!=...
is used) the specified labels.The until
filter can be Unix timestamps, date formatted timestamps, or Go duration strings (e.g. 10m
, 1h30m
) computed relative to the daemon machine’s time. Supported formats for date formatted time stamps include RFC3339Nano, RFC3339, 2006-01-02T15:04:05
, 2006-01-02T15:04:05.999999999
, 2006-01-02Z07:00
, and 2006-01-02
. The local timezone on the daemon will be used if you do not provide either a Z
or a +-00:00
timezone offset at the end of the timestamp. When providing Unix timestamps enter seconds[.nanoseconds], where seconds is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 (midnight UTC/GMT), not counting leap seconds (aka Unix epoch or Unix time), and the optional .nanoseconds field is a fraction of a second no more than nine digits long.
The label
filter accepts two formats. One is the label=...
(label=<key>
or label=<key>=<value>
), which removes networks with the specified labels. The other format is the label!=...
(label!=<key>
or label!=<key>=<value>
), which removes networks without the specified labels.
The following removes networks created more than 5 minutes ago. Note that system networks such as bridge
, host
, and none
will never be pruned:
