Libnetwork, Docker's networking plugin, has updated to be compatible with the Container Network Interface (CNI) specification used by Kubernetes. Libnetwork drivers can now be used as CNI plugins without changes to the CNM object model or Libnetwork core. This allows full integration with Kubernetes networking and use of Libnetwork's various networking drivers like bridge, overlay, and MacVlan through the CNI interface.

3. CNI vs CNM
• Not competing implementations:
• CNI is an interface
• CNM is an object model
• Implemented CNI interface to create CNM objects
• No CNM and Libnetwork core changes

4. Why Libnetwork CNI?
