Docker overlay host to container network not working

General Discussions
1

I am trying to create overlay docker network without swarm Link using consul multi host in aws ec2 instance AMI. I have created a overlay network and able to communicate with the containers . However when I am trying to reach from host to container specific port getting connection refused error . Host is not having any firewall. How I can reach the container port on overlay network .

Strange fact

  1. If I put the container without overlay network I am able to ping the container port from same host machine as well as other overlay network connected machine .
[ec2-user@ip-172-31-3-222 ~]$ sudo docker run --name mynginx1 -p 5080:80 -d nginx

Working :

[ec2-user@ip-172-31-3-222 ~]$ telnet 172.31.3.222 5080
Trying 172.31.3.222...
Connected to 172.31.3.222.
