Splunk in docker + UF from windows host

Hello,

for testing purposes at home I deployed splunk in docker following https://splunk.github.io/docker-splunk/

Splunk Enterprise and UF works flawlessly but I would like to get logs from my windows 10 machine into the splunk docker instance. 

Containers are in same network in docker but the host network is different so the windows host UF cant reach Splunk Enterprise. When switching the containers network to host, it doest work at all. 

I am definitely missing something here. Is it event possible to be sending data from host to a docket container real time as i would like to?

My host is windows 10 running Docker with 2 containers - Splunk UF and Splunk Enterprise.

Thank you.
