  dmesg | grep tty

Insert the /dev/ttyACMx path to the docker run command under devices

  docker run -d --restart unless-stopped --device=/dev/ttyACM0 wagoautomation/edge-lora-forwarder

Run the container with own conf file

  docker run -d --restart unless-stopped -v <Path_to_global_conf.json>:/global_conf.json --devices=/dev/ttyACM0 wagoautomation/edge-lora-forwarder
