Cannot ping docker instance on Kilo

[Fizza Hussain]

I have created a Docker instance in OpenStack Kilo. The instance is launched successfully and an IP 10.0.0.5 has been assigned to it. However, I cannot ping the docker instance from my host machine in spite of adding appropriate rules into the security group for allowing ping(ICMP).

Question: Why can't I ping any docker instance from host machine?

Note: I can successfully ping VM instances but cannot ping any docker instance.

Here is my local.conf file:
