Hi - could someone please provide an example on how to use the "endpoint" setting in discovery-ec2?

was following this : [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/6.2/\_settings.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/6.2/_settings.html)

and trying to set us-west-2 like this but am getting an ssl connection error. My intent is to forecefully set the region to us-west-2 in the elasticsearch.yml

`dicovery.ec2.endpoint: ec2.us-west-2.amazonaws.com`

Ignore this. Was an ascii character that was mucking things up.
