I want to run my elasticsearch server behind vpn.  
I have a elasticsearch and vpn server.I want to create a transport client via vpn in my [server.My](http://server.My) server is not connected to vpn.I want to only create a transport client.  
Vpn IP is added to ES security group.VPN server has a public port.

My server will create a transport client via [VPN.Is](http://VPN.Is) it possible?

Now My transport client code is below.I change host and port with my vpn host and port?  
But not connected. How can i configure?

Settings settings = Settings.settingsBuilder().put(ElasticSearchReservedWords.CLUSTER\_NAME.getText(), LogHandlerConstants.CLUSTER\_NAME)  
.put(ElasticSearchReservedWords.LISTENER\_TRANSPORT\_SNIFF.getText(), true).build();  
Client transportClient = TransportClient.builder().settings(settings).build()  
.addTransportAddress(new InetSocketTransportAddress(InetAddress.getByName(elasticsearch\_host), Integer.valueOf(9300)))  
.addTransportAddress(new InetSocketTransportAddress(InetAddress.getByName(elasticsearch\_host), Integer.valueOf(9301)));
