## NAME
podman\-network\-reload - Reload network configuration for containers

## SYNOPSIS
**podman network reload** [*options*] [*container...*]

## DESCRIPTION
Reload one or more container network configurations.

Rootful Podman relies on iptables rules in order to provide network connectivity. If the iptables rules are deleted,
this happens for example with `firewall-cmd --reload`, the container loses network connectivity. This command restores
the network connectivity.

This command is not available for rootless users since rootless containers are not affected by such connectivity problems.

## OPTIONS
#### **--all**, **-a**

Reload network configuration of all containers.

#### **--latest**, **-l**

Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use methods other than Podman
to run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods.

The latest option is not supported on the remote client.

## EXAMPLE

Reload the network configuration after a firewall reload.

```
# podman run -p 80:80 -d nginx
b1b538e8bc4078fc3ee1c95b666ebc7449b9a97bacd15bcbe464a29e1be59c1c
# curl 127.0.0.1
works
# sudo firewall-cmd --reload
success
# curl 127.0.0.1
hangs
# podman network reload b1b538e8bc40
b1b538e8bc4078fc3ee1c95b666ebc7449b9a97bacd15bcbe464a29e1be59c1c
# curl 127.0.0.1
works
```

Reload the network configuration for all containers.

```
# podman network reload --all
b1b538e8bc4078fc3ee1c95b666ebc7449b9a97bacd15bcbe464a29e1be59c1c
