If your Docker container is hosted on a VPS Hosting, the host network mode for a container could be used thus making container’s network stack to become not isolated from the Docker host. Host mode networking can be useful in handling a large range of ports, as it does not require network address translation.

When you start Docker, a default bridge network (also called bridge) is created automatically, and newly-started containers connect to it unless otherwise specified. Unfortunately, it becomes a challenge for Mysterium Network users that are sitting behind a symmetric NAT.

The quick solution to this is to enable the host mode by passing --network=host flag to the docker run command.

Note! The host networking driver only works on Linux hosts, and is not supported on Docker Desktop for Mac or Docker Desktop for Windows.
