Running wpantund from a Docker container:

For a device that has a Thread radio attached to port /dev/ttyUSB0, start wpantund as follows:

docker run --rm --detach -e "OPENTHREAD_DEVICE_PORT=/dev/ttyUSB0" --cap-add=NET_ADMIN --device=/dev/ttyUSB0 --name=wpantund openthread/wpantund

Once wpantund is running, one can control the Thread interface with wpanctl as follows:

docker exec -it wpantund wpanctl
