I haven't tested this patch, but fanctl had the same issue, and I believe the fix is that the subnet math has to be "overlay_width + ( 32 - underlay_width )", not "overlay_width + underlay_width".
Patch attached. ** Patch removed: "fanatic patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-fan/+bug/1584092/+attachment/4667027/+files/fanatic.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-fan in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1584092 Title: Docker misconfigured when using non-default overlay/underlay netmask size Status in ubuntu-fan package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Fan allows for variable sized subnet map sizes. For example, if I want to map a /24 to a /16 instead of the default /16 to /8, Fan supports this. However, when configuring this via fanatic, I see that docker configuration fails. In /etc/default/docker, the --fixed-cidr flag is defined incorrectly. $ sudo fanatic Welcome to the fanatic fan networking wizard.
