The first thing we want to do is make sure that RabbitMQ is running in a container and assigned to a custom Docker network, where various containers connected to that network will talk to each other. Among many other features, it also provides software defined network (SDN) capabilities to provide various types of integration between containers, hosts, and other systems.
Docker comes with several predefined networks built. You can see the networks currently installed by using the docker network ls command:
