title: docker-compose down - network is external, skipping
body: <p>I'm trying bring down all services for an external network defined in my docker-compose file (using version 2). </p>
  
  <p>When I try to do a <code>docker-compose down</code>, I get a message stating, </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Network 'your_network' is external, skipping</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Is there a way, using docker-compose, to stop and remove all the containers for a user-defined or external network?</p>
