Hi there, I have a VM with Elastic and kibana working fine in an 20.04 ubuntu. I am now trying to send curl operations on the rest api, from my host, but i got timed out. in the vm it's working fine. when i do : sudo ufw status 9200 is allowed from anywhere the network.host is set to 0.0.0.0 and the port to 9200. I don't know where to look now. Thanks for your help ! ---

From on the VM host where elasticsearch is installed what do you get get when you run `curl http://localhost:9200` Then run `curl http://:9200` The try that from another host let us know Do you get the same thing? Did you read the [difference between dev and production](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/bootstrap-checks.html#dev-vs-prod-mode) mode? Also you can always try to telnet to the elasticsearch host and port 9200 from another server if that fails then perhaps you may have a firewall issue ---
