I have two machine , machine A and machine B  
and they are in the same local area network.  
I installed kibana in machine A and set server.host "127.0.0.1" in kibana.yml  
and I cannot access the page in machine B via machine A's ip address like 192.168.16.137:5601  
Does anybody know why?

`127.0.0.1` only allows connections from the local machine, not across the network, so change this to `0.0.0.0` instead.

No, I tried 0.0.0.0, it is still unaccessible  
The return info contains

```auto
{
statusCode: 502,
error: "Bad Gateway",
message: "connect EADDRNOTAVAIL 0.0.0.0:5603"
}

```

`0.0.0.0` makes Kibana listen to all interfaces, so you should be able to access it using the hosts public IP address. If this is not the case, you may have a firewall blocking access.
