Have you already tried to to setup networking on Hostinterface? That would make it much easier and that definitively works.

For P2P, it's best to forward the same ports, as that will avoid issues like these. Host Interface, or Bridged, is easier, as the VM will be a part of the network itself.

Isn't it more dangerous for attacks ?

bridge solved the problem - 10x!

is it more dangerous ?
should I use firewall in the guest too ?

It's always useful to run a firewall, even when you're behind a NAT router.
