+It is useful to have some docker containers live in the same network as your host machine. We can accomplish this by creating a new MAC address for the container and using the `macvlan` driver. Here is example Docker Compose configuration
+
+```yml
+services:  
+  nginx:
+    image: linuxserver/nginx
+    container_name: nginx
+    hostname: nginx
+    # Randomized MAC address
+    mac_address: 4E:64:A4:60:8D:0E
+    environment:
+      PUID: 1000
+      PGID: 1000
+    volumes:
+      - /etc/nginx:/config/nginx
+    restart: always
+    ports:
+      - 80/tcp
+      - 443/udp
+    networks:
+      macvlan_network:
+        # Static IP for host network
+        ipv4_address: 192.168.0.10
+      # Allow access to nginx container in default docker network
+      default: 
+
+networks:
+  macvlan_network:
+    driver: macvlan
+    driver_opts:
+      # Obtain device name by looking at `ip addr`
+      parent: eno1
+    ipam:
+      config:
+        - subnet: 192.168.0.0/24
+```
