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.

> [@ankitdevnalkar](#): > > network.host: "0.0.0.0" 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. 🙂 ---
