In HostA I have one container running an IOC and another container with caget/caput installed. Both containers have these env variables defined:

EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST=127.255.255.255
EPICS_CA_REPEATER_PORT=5065
EPICS_CA_SERVER_PORT=5064

Why set EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST=127.255.255.255 in the container with caget/caput?

Here is a container startup that works for me (uses --net=host).  Multiple IOC containers on a host workstation.  All IOCs seen on the subnet.  Have not tried to use caget from any of these yet.
