After multiple tries finally able to load Kibana page, it is asking me to configure Elasticsearch. I generated Token and provided it then asked me for Kibana verification code, when I tried to provide that code it is not working .Telling me the token and code are wrong. How to fix this?

I am doing this locally on my VM on a Ubuntu box.

I think you are going to need to provide a bit more details...

Enrollment tokens expire so you may need to create a new one from the elasiticsearch node.

On elasticsearch node while elasticsearch is running.. see [here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/master/create-enrollment-token.html)

`bin/elasticsearch-create-enrollment-token -s kibana`

Then on the kibana node after you start kibana see [here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/8.3/kibana-verification-code.html)  
`bin/kibana-verification-code`

Paste in the Verification Code, then Kibana should ask for the enrollment tokens, the code and token are time sensitive so you should complete within a few minutes
