There is a `server.defaultRoute` configuration setting that you can modify in your `kibana.yml` file. This will change the default route when opening Kibana.

For example, you can set Kibana to open the Monitoring plugin by default.  
`server.defaultRoute: /app/monitoring`

See more in the [Configuring Kibana](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/settings.html) documentation.
