Troubleshooting attempted

• Searched GitHub for existing issues. (Mention any similar issues under "See also", above.)
• Searched the documentation for relevant troubleshooting guidance.
• Searched for a relevant VMware KB article.

I tried to first disconnect the IP address from the container network, but I receive an error.

docker network disconnect web vch1-containers
Error response from daemon: vSphere Integrated Containers does not yet implement DisconnectContainerFromNetwork
