ElasticSearch on Docker Swarm using host network

I'm trying to build a 3 node (1 master + 2 nodes) Docker Swarm using Azure's Ubuntu image.
I've then tried to deploy an ElasticSearch 3 node cluster.

This is my YAML file:

version: '3.7'
services:
  elasticsearch:
    image: docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:7.10.1
    hostname: "{{.Node.Hostname}}"
    environment:
      - node.name={{.Node.Hostname}}
      - cluster.name=rdcluster
      - "ES_JAVA_OPTS=-Xms2g -Xmx2g"
      - discovery.seed_hosts=elasticsearch
      - cluster.initial_master_nodes=Docker01,Docker02,Docker03
      - node.ml=false
      - xpack.ml.enabled=false
      - xpack.monitoring.enabled=false
      - xpack.security.enabled=false
      - xpack.watcher.enabled=false
      - bootstrap.memory_lock=false
    ulimits:
      memlock:
        soft: -1
        hard: -1
    volumes:
      - elasticsearch-data:/usr/share/elasticsearch/data
    deploy:
      mode: global
      endpoint_mode: dnsrr
      resources:
        limits:
          memory: 4G
    networks:
      - "myelasticnetwork"
  nginx:
    image: nginx:1.17.1-alpine
    ports:
      - 9200:9200
    deploy:
      mode: global
    command: |
      /bin/sh -c "echo '
      user nobody nogroup;
      worker_processes auto;
      events {
        worker_connections 1024;
      }
      http {
        client_max_body_size 4g;
        resolver 127.0.0.1 ipv6=off;
        server {
          listen *:9200;
          location / {
            proxy_set_header Connection keep-alive;
            set $url http://elasticsearch:9200;
            proxy_pass $url;
            proxy_set_header  Host $http_host;
            proxy_set_header  X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
            proxy_set_header  X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
          }
        }
      }' | tee /etc/nginx/nginx.conf && nginx -t && nginx -g 'daemon off;'"

volumes:
  elasticsearch-data:
  
networks:
   myelasticnetwork:
      external:
        name: "host"

Seems that Elastic is constantly restarting because of the heartbeats. I think that the problem is that in Azure we can't connect to "virtual" networks that aren't managed by Azure. In this case, my nodes host network is 10.0.0.0/20. Inspecting ElasticSearch network I get:

$ sudo docker network inspect elasticsearch_default

            {
                "Name": "c476ac76244e",
                "IP": "10.0.0.16"
            },
            {
                "Name": "2ebc9eb2cd10",
                "IP": "10.0.0.8"
            }
        ]
    }
]

The bottom IP's (10.0.0.7, 10.0.0.8 and 10.0.0.16) matches with the nodes IP's. However the top IP's (10.0.3.X) are auto-generated and not by Azure.

Is there a way of saying that I want the 9200 port to be on the node IP? I've trying with the external.name = "host" but I didn't work.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks
