+## Running Container Scanning in an offline air-gapped installation
+
+Container Scanning can be executed on an offline air-gapped GitLab Ultimate installation using the following process:
+
+1. Host the following Docker images on a [local Docker container registry](../../packages/container_registry/index.md):
+ - [arminc/clair-db vulnerabilities database](https://hub.docker.com/r/arminc/clair-db)
+ - [GitLab klar analyzer](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/klar)
+1. [Override the container scanning template](#overriding-the-container-scanning-template) in your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file to refer to the Docker
+ images hosted on your local Docker container registry:
+
+ ```yaml
+ include:
+ - template: Container-Scanning.gitlab-ci.yml
+
+ container_scanning:
+ image: your.local.registry:5000/gitlab-klar-analyzer
+ variables:
+ CLAIR_DB_IMAGE: your.local.registry:5000/clair-vulnerabilities-db
