## The localhost loopback limitation
Due to a default NAT limitation in Windows (see [https://blog.sixeyed.com/published-ports-on-windows-containers-dont-do-loopback/](https://blog.sixeyed.com/published-ports-on-windows-containers-dont-do-loopback/)) you can't access your containers using `localhost`.
Instead of localhost you can use the host's IP inside the DockerNAT, that is `10.0.75.1`. If you use `start-windows-containers.ps1` to start the containers the script do the needed configuration for you, but if you use docker-compose then you have to set the following environment variables:
* `ESHOP_EXTERNAL_DNS_NAME_OR_IP` to `10.75.0.1`
* `ESHOP_AZURE_STORAGE_CATALOG_URL` to `http://10.0.75.1:5101/api/v1/catalog/items/[0]/pic/`
* `ESHOP_AZURE_STORAGE_MARKETING_URL` to `http://10.0.75.1:5110/api/v1/campaigns/[0]/pic/`
Note that the two last must be set only if you have not set them (so, if you are not using Azure Storage for the images). If you are using azure storage for the images, you can leave them.
Once these variables are set you can run docker-compose to start the containers and navigate to `http://10.0.75.1:5100` to view the MVC Web app.
