Connect to a docker mongo instance from remote server

This should be really simple but I can't find any answer I installed docker on a server I am running mongo on it 

docker run --name some-mongo -d mongo

I have one user

$ docker exec -it some-mongo mongo admin
connecting to: admin
> db.createUser({ user: 'jsmith', pwd: 'some-initial-password', roles: [ { role: "userAdminAnyDatabase", db: "admin" } ] });
Successfully added user: {
    "user" : "jsmith",
    "roles" : [
        {
            "role" : "userAdminAnyDatabase",
            "db" : "admin"
        }
    ]
}

And when I am trying to connect from an other server

mongo my-server.com:27017/admin -u jsmith -p some-initial-password

I have 

MongoDB shell version: 3.2.0
connecting to: infra1.host.com:27017/admin

Just redirect mongo port:

docker run --name some-mongo -p 27017:27017 -d mongo
