We have the back half of our system set up in a Docker container, as well as the private bridge network to connect the backend containers. We now need to set up another private bridge network, frontnet, and attach the other half of our system to that network.

Create a directory, frontnet, which is where we'll develop the tools to build and run that network. In that directory, create a file, buildfrontnet.sh, or on Windows, buildfrontnet.ps1, containing:

docker network create --driver bridge frontnet

Let's go ahead and create the frontnet bridge network:

$ sh -x buildfrontnet.sh 
+ docker network create --driver bridge frontnet
f3df227d4bfff57bc7aed1e096a2ad16f6cebce4938315a54d9386a42d1ae3ed
$ docker network ls
NETWORK ID NAME DRIVER SCOPE
3021e2069278 authnet bridge local
f3df227d4bff frontnet bridge local  

We'll proceed from here similarly to how authnet was created. However, we can work more quickly because we've already gone over the basics.
