In release 27.0, ip6tables was enabled by default. That caused a
problem on some hosts where iptables was explicitly disabled and
loading the br_netfilter module (which loads with its nf-call-iptables
settings enabled) caused user-defined iptables rules to block traffic
on bridges, breaking inter-container communication.
In 27.3.0, commit 5c499fc4b2 delayed
loading of the br_netfilter module until it was needed. The load
now happens in the function that sets bridge-nf-call-ip[6]tables when
needed. It was only called for icc=false networks.
However, br_netfilter is also needed when userland-proxy=false.
Without it, packets addressed to a host-mapped port for a container
on the same network are not DNAT'd properly (responses have the server
container's address instead of the host's).
That means, in all releases including 26.x, if br_netfilter was loaded
before the daemon started - and the OS/user/other-application had
disabled bridge-nf-call-ip[6]tables, it would not be enabled by the
daemon. So, ICC would fail for host-mapped ports with the userland-proxy
disabled.
The change in 27.3.0 made this worse - previously, loading br_netfilter
whenever iptables/ip6tables was enabled meant that bridge-netfiltering
got enabled, even though the daemon didn't check it was enabled.
So... check that br_netfilter is loaded, with bridge-nf-call-ip[6]tables
enabled, if userland-proxy=false.

libnetwork - networking for containers
Libnetwork provides a native Go implementation for connecting containers
The goal of libnetwork is to deliver a robust Container Network Model that provides a consistent programming interface and the required network abstractions for applications.
Design
Please refer to the design for more information.
Using libnetwork
There are many networking solutions available to suit a broad range of use-cases. libnetwork uses a driver / plugin model to support all of these solutions while abstracting the complexity of the driver implementations by exposing a simple and consistent Network Model to users.
