Docker bridge and nginx allowed ip
This is expected and is the way docker networking works. By default you end up with something a bit like a virtual network on your docker host. Connections forwarded through from the outside will come to each container via docker0 and NAT.

i.e. --network host
option to docker run
command. See: host networking
Also, read through the docker networking documentation. It's explained more thoroughly there. https://docs.docker.com/network/
