If a container is linked to several networks, be sure to set the proper network name (you can check with `docker inspect <container_id>`) otherwise it will randomly pick one (depending on how docker is returning them).
For instance when deploying docker `stack` from compose files, the compose defined networks will be prefixed with the `stack` name.
Or if your service references external network use it's name instead.

If a label is defined both as a `container label` and a `segment label` (for example `traefik.<segment_name>.port=PORT` and `traefik.port=PORT` ), the `segment label` is used to defined the `<segment_name>` property (`port` in the example).
It's possible to mix `container labels` and `segment labels`, in this case `container labels` are used as default value for missing `segment labels` but no frontends are going to be created with the `container labels`.
