    22  
    23  ## Description
    24  
    25  Join a node to a swarm. The node joins as a manager node or worker node based upon the token you
    26  pass with the `--token` flag. If you pass a manager token, the node joins as a manager. If you
    27  pass a worker token, the node joins as a worker.
    28  
    29  ## Examples
    30  
    31  ### Join a node to swarm as a manager
    32  
    33  The example below demonstrates joining a manager node using a manager token.
    34  
    35  ```bash
    36  $ docker swarm join --token SWMTKN-1-3pu6hszjas19xyp7ghgosyx9k8atbfcr8p2is99znpy26u2lkl-7p73s1dx5in4tatdymyhg9hu2 192.168.99.121:2377
    37  This node joined a swarm as a manager.
    38  $ docker node ls
    39  ID                           HOSTNAME  STATUS  AVAILABILITY  MANAGER STATUS
    40  dkp8vy1dq1kxleu9g4u78tlag *  manager2  Ready   Active        Reachable
    41  dvfxp4zseq4s0rih1selh0d20    manager1  Ready   Active        Leader
    42  ```
    43  
    44  A cluster should only have 3-7 managers at most, because a majority of managers must be available
    45  for the cluster to function. Nodes that aren't meant to participate in this management quorum
    46  should join as workers instead. Managers should be stable hosts that have static IP addresses.
    47  
    48  ### Join a node to swarm as a worker
    49  
    50  The example below demonstrates joining a worker node using a worker token.
    51  
    52  ```bash
    53  $ docker swarm join --token SWMTKN-1-3pu6hszjas19xyp7ghgosyx9k8atbfcr8p2is99znpy26u2lkl-1awxwuwd3z9j1z3puu7rcgdbx 192.168.99.121:2377
    54  This node joined a swarm as a worker.
    55  $ docker node ls
    56  ID                           HOSTNAME  STATUS  AVAILABILITY  MANAGER STATUS
    57  7ln70fl22uw2dvjn2ft53m3q5    worker2   Ready   Active
    58  dkp8vy1dq1kxleu9g4u78tlag    worker1   Ready   Active        Reachable
    59  dvfxp4zseq4s0rih1selh0d20 *  manager1  Ready   Active        Leader
    60  ```
    61  
    62  ### `--listen-addr value`
    63  
    64  If the node is a manager, it will listen for inbound swarm manager traffic on this
    65  address. The default is to listen on 0.0.0.0:2377. It is also possible to specify a
    66  network interface to listen on that interface's address; for example `--listen-addr eth0:2377`.
    67  
    68  Specifying a port is optional. If the value is a bare IP address, or interface
    69  name, the default port 2377 will be used.
    70  
    71  This flag is generally not necessary when joining an existing swarm.
    72  
    73  ### `--advertise-addr value`
    74  
    75  This flag specifies the address that will be advertised to other members of the
    76  swarm for API access. If unspecified, Docker will check if the system has a
    77  single IP address, and use that IP address with the listening port (see
    78  `--listen-addr`). If the system has multiple IP addresses, `--advertise-addr`
    79  must be specified so that the correct address is chosen for inter-manager
    80  communication and overlay networking.
    81  
    82  It is also possible to specify a network interface to advertise that interface's address;
    83  for example `--advertise-addr eth0:2377`.
    84  
    85  Specifying a port is optional. If the value is a bare IP address, or interface
    86  name, the default port 2377 will be used.
    87  
    88  This flag is generally not necessary when joining an existing swarm. If
    89  you're joining new nodes through a load balancer, you should use this flag to
    90  ensure the node advertises its IP address and not the IP address of the load
    91  balancer.
    92  
    93  ### `--data-path-addr`
    94  
    95  This flag specifies the address that global scope network drivers will publish towards
    96  other nodes in order to reach the containers running on this node.
    97  Using this parameter it is then possible to separate the container's data traffic from the
    98  management traffic of the cluster.
    99  If unspecified, Docker will use the same IP address or interface that is used for the
   100  advertise address.
   101  
   102  ### `--token string`
   103  
   104  Secret value required for nodes to join the swarm
   105  
   106  ### `--availability`
   107  
   108  This flag specifies the availability of the node at the time the node joins a master.
   109  Possible availability values are `active`, `pause`, or `drain`.
   110  
   111  This flag is useful in certain situations. For example, a cluster may want to have
   112  dedicated manager nodes that are not served as worker nodes. This could be achieved
   113  by passing `--availability=drain` to `docker swarm join`.
