How to run docker on mac offline - macos

Question

When i installed docker on mac, it took a ip from my intranet network.
There after when i switched to a different network it was showing me error
$ bash --login '/Applications/Docker/Docker Quickstart Terminal.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/start.sh'
Starting "default"...

Error getting IP address: Something went wrong running an SSH command!
command : ip addr show dev eth1
err : exit status 255
output :
docker is configured to use the default machine with IP
For help getting started, check out the docs at https://docs.docker.com
I understood that something related to the gateway that got configured in 'default'
I ran
docker-machine rm default (this deleted all my previously downloaded images)
docker-machine create --driver virtualbox default
Went offline and relaunched docker-machine
The default got built. After that i went online and tried to download a image.
But i was getting connection errors.
$ docker run -t -i --name myFirstContainer ubuntu:14.04 /bin/bash
Unable to find image 'ubuntu:14.04' locally

Network timed out while trying to connect to https://index.docker.io/v1/repositories/library/ubuntu/images. You may want to check your internet connection or if you are behind a proxy.
I think its because when i was offline , no interface was assigned to 'default'
$ docker network inspect bridge

State when i reconnected to a network and rebuilt 'default'
$ docker-machine create --driver virtualbox default

Setting Docker configuration on the remote daemon...
This machine has been allocated an IP address, but Docker Machine could not
reach it successfully.
SSH for the machine should still work, but connecting to exposed ports, such as
the Docker daemon port (usually <ip>:2376), may not work properly.
You may need to add the route manually, or use another related workaround.
This could be due to a VPN, proxy, or host file configuration issue.
You also might want to clear any VirtualBox host only interfaces you are not using.
Checking connection to Docker...
Docker is up and running!
To see how to connect Docker to this machine, run: docker-machine env default
$ docker network inspect bridge

Is there anyway i can seamlessly run docker even when i am switching networks or when i am offline?
