I have a docker container as part of docker-compose that should reach other containers but as well a server running in my local network.
(the docker container is a monitoring service)

I know that in order to reach the local LAN I should configure the network mode to “host”, is that correct? In that case am I still able to reach the other containers running in the default bridge network?

    Thanks, it must have been some other problem. I’m able to reach my local network from within the docker container. I even found that the docker container is using the host DNS configuration.

    I configured pi.hole as DNS server in the host machine and the docker container is using it too.
