There is an explanation and a link. Have you taken a look at that? This means, that there is actually a TLS connection made and your Elasticsearch cluster is using a encrpytion to communicate. This also means you need to configure Kibana to make sure it also uses encrypted connections to Elasticsearch. See [Set up basic security for the Elastic Stack | Elasticsearch Guide [8.1] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/security-basic-setup.html#security-basic-setup) for some more guidance around this, if you are using Elastic Stack 8. ---

To further verify that you are correctly connecting to your Elasticsearch instance you can try: > curl -v -k [https://172.19.14.67:9200/](https://172.19.14.67:9200/) The "-v" will display the headers coming back from the server and the "-k" will make curl ignore the self self signed certificate error so the page can actually be loaded. ---
