WSL 2 and port forwarding

Hi there, I am running a docker container on WSL 2 which I want to connect to from my LAN.
The docker container gets by default ip 172.17.0.x, if I define manually an ip (such as “–ip 192.168.3.100” my LAN) the containers cannot communicate with my lan devices.
I was thinking to create a port forwarding between the host (Windows 10) and the container.
Is there a more elegant way to accomplish that? Note that I will also need other containers to talk each others.

docker run -d -p 192.168.3.100:80:80 docker/getting-started

map your IP alias and port 80 of the host to port 80 in the container

-p 192.168.3.100:80:80
