Sounds suspiciously similar to a dedicated server/colo setup where your
provider only allows one MAC on each port. Is that the case for you? If
yes, then short answer is you can't use bridge.

SInce your container IP (91.143.88.119) and host IP (81.7.15.233) is on a
different subnet mask, I suspect that your provider routes the additional
IP to your main IP. In which case you should use routed setup.
