Compose sets up a single default [network](http://TODO/docker-networking-docs) for your app. Each container for a service joins the default network and is both *reachable* by other containers on that network, and *discoverable* by them at a hostname identical to the service's name.

## Specifying the network driver
By default, Compose uses the `bridge` driver when creating the app’s network. The Docker Engine provides one other driver out-of-the-box: `overlay`, which implements secure communication between containers on different hosts (see the next section for how to set up and use the `overlay` driver). Docker also allows you to install [custom network drivers](http://TODO/custom-driver-docs).
