# Install and configure Broker using Docker

How to install and configure the Classic Snyk Broker using Docker

Run Snyk Broker as a Docker container to connect Snyk to systems inside your network without exposing them to the internet.

{% hint style="info" %}
[Broker version 4.205.1](https://github.com/snyk/broker/blob/cb4f89e05eb42605f076321b952cdb7e57bf4111/config.default.json#L8) has been [released](https://updates.snyk.io). In this version, all `ACCEPT` rule flags will be enabled by default. This reduces needed configuration. If you do not want a specific `ACCEPT` rule flag to be enabled, you can opt out of the default `ACCEPT` all behavior by adding `ACCEPT_=false` to your Broker client configuration.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**Multi-tenant settings for regions**\
When installing, you must add a command in your script to set the `BROKER_SERVER_URL`. This is the URL of the Broker server for the region where your data is hosted. For the commands and URLs to use, see [Broker URLs](https://docs.snyk.io/snyk-data-and-governance/regional-hosting-and-data-residency#broker-server-urls).
{% endhint %}

Before starting installation, review the [Prerequisites](/platform-administration/snyk-broker/classic-broker/prepare-snyk-broker-for-deployment.md#prerequisites-for-snyk-broker) and other information on the page [Prepare Snyk Broker for deployment](/platform-administration/snyk-broker/classic-broker/prepare-snyk-broker-for-deployment.md).

If you are using Kubernetes, Snyk recommends that you install Snyk Broker with the [Broker Helm Chart](https://github.com/snyk/snyk-broker-helm). For details, see[ Install and configure Broker using Helm.](/platform-administration/snyk-broker/classic-broker/install-and-configure-snyk-broker/install-and-configure-broker-using-helm.md)

For all other environments, you can install Snyk Broker using the [Docker images](https://github.com/snyk/broker) provided by Snyk. The pages listed here explain how to set up the Snyk Broker Client integrations using Docker.

## Install using Docker

The following pages explain how to install these special integrations.

* [GitHub](/platform-administration/snyk-broker/classic-broker/install-and-configure-snyk-broker/github-prerequisites-and-steps-to-install-and-configure-broker/github-install-and-configure-using-docker.md)

* [Snyk Broker - Container Registry Agent](/platform-administration/snyk-broker/snyk-broker-container-registry-agent.md) (needed to connect to Container Registries)

You can customize the configuration using the environment variables in the Docker images. For this reason, install separate, multiple instances of the Broker Client for different integration types to ensure proper configuration as well as redundancy.

You can verify that the Broker is running by looking at the settings for your brokered integration in [the Snyk Web UI](https://app.snyk.io) to see a confirmation message that you are connected. You can start importing Projects once you are connected.

## Advanced configuration using Docker

When you install using Docker, follow the instructions on the pages about [Advanced configuration for Snyk Broker Docker installation](/platform-administration/snyk-broker/classic-broker/install-and-configure-snyk-broker/advanced-configuration-for-snyk-broker-docker-installation.md) as needed.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.snyk.io/platform-administration/snyk-broker/classic-broker/install-and-configure-snyk-broker/install-and-configure-broker-using-docker.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
