ELK - Enable Kibana Login (Basic Auth) without SSL/TLS on Multi Instance Docker Swarm Cluster

[vdcharter]

Hi, I have a multi node - multi instance (VM and BareMetal servers) docker swarm cluster for my ELK Stack with 3 ES Masters, 3 Kibana Nodes, data nodes etc.

ES and Kibana Version - 7.17.8

I want to enable basic authentication for Kibana which allows login screen to Kibana but without HTTP and Transport SSL enabled (i.e no certificates).

It this possible with basic only license to achieve this over multiple nodes / instances ? Please help!

Below is my docker compose .yml
