I make a container using this command : docker run -dp 4444:22 ubuntu:latest sleep infinity in aws EC2.
And my container status like that.
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
917eddbdf070 ubuntu:latest "sleep infinity" 30 minutes ago Up 30 minutes 0.0.0.0:4444->22/tcp, :::4444->22/tcp agitated_mayer
And I exec to the container, install sshd and start service sshd.

And I see 22 port is listening in EC2 container.
In EC2 machine, 22 port and 4444 port is listening, too.

I want to connect this container in local, so I run this. ssh <EC2 public ipv4 addr> -p 4444 -v.
Finally I confirm my EC2 inbound rule, and it's not wrong.
Is there any step that I missed?
Fairly new to Docker. Our containers work fine when hitting localhost with curl or a browser, but any external calls to http://[ip address] just time out. We're seeing the exact same behavior with Kong and also a basic whoami. The only way the containers are externally accessible is when we add --network host to the docker run command, but that's not an option for our production use.
The server itself and firewall are configured correctly; when I shut down docker and spun up a simple webserver it was reachable at the IP address. Essentially, any bridge-type network for Docker is inaccessible to the outside world and produces time-outs on any call to a port we set it to listen for (vs immediate connection refused for random unmapped ports).
The run commands we're using:
docker run -d -p 80:80 containous/whoami
docker run -d --name kongtest \
-p 0.0.0.0:80:8000 -p 0.0.0.0:443:8443 \

I tried adding --privileged onto Docker command line, and that fixes the problem. I then wanted to use more granular capabilities, but I cannot find the right capability.
I tried
docker run --rm --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN --cap-add=NET_ADMIN -it myimage:latest bash
but that does not help.
The required capability is --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE. There are various reports in bugs that netstat needs this capability. For example, Bug 901754 - SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/netstat from using the 'sys_ptrace' capabilities.
The correct command therefore is
docker run --rm --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE -it myimage:latest bash

I can't figure out where I'm getting wrong (I am still a beginner in port forwarding and networking). Any help appreciated, Thanks!
I expose docker ports of my contaners to the host machine with something like
docker run -p 80:80 ...
then I try to display all listening ports for debugging purposes with netstat e.g.:
netstat -at
Strange thing is that netstat won't display my docker containers with exposed ports, although they are listening and reply to the browser.
How do I make netstat display those exposed ports?
UPDATE:
I'm running this on Debian 8 Jessie. Here's what I do:
docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
9dfa08bab50d workflows-nginx "/bin/sh -c '/usr/sbi" 2 hours ago Up 2 hours 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp, 0.0.0.0:443->443/tcp workflows-nginx

99a857c92533 workflows-db "/docker-entrypoint.s" 7 hours ago Up 3 hours 5432/tcp workflows-db
Here docker reports that container ports are forwarded to the host. Moreover, if I stop workflows-nginx container, it stops answering to the browser by http (port 80). If I start it again, it starts responding again.
Here is the output of sudo netstat -at | less:

As you can see, neither port 80, nor port 443 are reported. Port 8000 of workflows-django for some reason is opened on IPv6 interface. Moreover, I forgot to disable postgres on host machine and still they don't clash with postgres container workflows-db.
Everything is running on my local notebook, so I guess there can't be any confusion with the host.
My docker version is:
docker --version
Docker version 1.10.3, build 20f81dd
ANSWER: This is related to docker EXPOSE parameter. If you write this line in your dockerfile and run the container with -p, the port will be visible in netstat. If you use -p but don't write EXPOSE, your port won't be listed by netstat.
It's never too late to answer a question.
Using netstat -tln, not netstat -at.
It's very simple to answer, if you notify the --numeric option for netstat. By using this option, netstat will print address with numbers instead of meaningful string. Then you can grep them as you mentioned. Following shows how it works.

Some basic things you need to verify yourself:
Are you running netstat with elevated privileges? Somethings might miss out when you are non-root
Is your docker container running on the same host as you expect? Check with docker ps
Does docker ps list the port forwarding? Like from the above, you should be able to see something like this 0.0.0.0:3030->80/tcp
Also note that, the docker-proxy is the one running on the host.
All commands above assumes that you run on linux.
This was tested with ubuntu 15.10
If you still feel you are missing the forwarding, then please post back your Operating System, docker version etc.
Thanks,
This code will show you the opened ports with the pids inside the container:
container_name=some_container_name
c_pid=`docker container inspect -f "{{.State.Pid}}" ${container_name}`
nsenter -t ${c_pid} -n netstat -anp
They are listed, just not in the way you might expect. If you're looking for an ipv4 listen port you won't see it (unless I believe if you're using both the EXPOSE and publish (-p) mechanisms in tandem), but what you will see is a docker proxy on ipv6, e.g. for a MySQL container:
netstat -tlpn4
