Elasticsearch could not run on public ip on AWS

I am trying to bind my public ip on Elasticsearch but it does not working. however, it is working ok while doing curl from localhost, but giving connection timed out on browser.
I read almost every article here in community as well as stack overflow but non of them helped address this issue. My elasticsearch.yml file is as follows. Can anyone help ?

======================== Elasticsearch Configuration =========================

NOTE: Elasticsearch comes with reasonable defaults for most settings.

Before you set out to tweak and tune the configuration, make sure you

understand what are you trying to accomplish and the consequences.

The primary way of configuring a node is via this file. This template lists

the most important settings you may want to configure for a production cluster.

Please consult the documentation for further information on configuration options:

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/index.html

---------------------------------- Cluster -----------------------------------

Use a descriptive name for your cluster:

cluster.name: aws-elastic

------------------------------------ Node ------------------------------------

Use a descriptive name for the node:

node.name: aws-node

Add custom attributes to the node:

#node.attr.rack: r1

----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------

Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):

path.data: /var/lib/elasticsearch

Path to log files:

path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch

----------------------------------- Memory -----------------------------------

Lock the memory on startup:

#bootstrap.memory_lock: true

Make sure that the heap size is set to about half the memory available

on the system and that the owner of the process is allowed to use this

limit.

Elasticsearch performs poorly when the system is swapping the memory.

---------------------------------- Network -----------------------------------

Set the bind address to a specific IP (IPv4 or IPv6):

network.host: "0.0.0.0"

Set a custom port for HTTP:

http.port: 9200

For more information, consult the network module documentation.

--------------------------------- Discovery ----------------------------------

Pass an initial list of hosts to perform discovery when this node is started:

The default list of hosts is ["127.0.0.1", "[::1]"]

#discovery.seed_hosts: ["host1", "host2"]

Bootstrap the cluster using an initial set of master-eligible nodes:

cluster.initial_master_nodes: ["172.31.15.53"]

For more information, consult the discovery and cluster formation module documentation.

---------------------------------- Gateway -----------------------------------

Block initial recovery after a full cluster restart until N nodes are started:

#gateway.recover_after_nodes: 3

For more information, consult the gateway module documentation.

---------------------------------- Various -----------------------------------

Require explicit names when deleting indices:

#action.destructive_requires_name: true

Following is my log output

What are you trying to do, as the above 0.0.0.0 is all you need to do, but this will bind to the PRIVATE IP of the AWS node - the public IP is not normally on the VM or an interface the node can listen on, that's provided via EIP and should just work once you attach the EIP - so can you give us more info?

It is resolved. It was my router which were not supporting IPv6. :slight_smile:
