Hello. I am having a problem with kibana working. I have an elastic cluster of 3 nodes. For fault tolerance, I decided to install kibana in swarm-cluster with Nginx Reverse Proxy. When trying to log in, I am catching a 302 redirect loop. (ERR\_TOO\_MANY\_REDIRECTS) How can I solve this?

Welcome to our community! 😃

Can you elaborate more on why you implemented nginx?

We implemented nginx because we restrict access to the resource through our openvpn.
