Running

To run the container with the default parameters:

docker run --name otbr-mqtt-sn -p 8080:80 --dns=127.0.0.1 -it --privileged otbr-mqtt-sn

The most common network parameters can be set on the docker command line. The default values are taken from the Nordic Semiconductor border router such that it works with the examples in the nRF5 SDK for Thread and Zigbee.
