Hello!

My new ES 8.x Cluster works so far but, not with TLS Cluster and I can´t connect Kibana (also 8) with it.

[2022-04-29T07:41:44,969][WARN][o.e.t.OutboundHandler] [node1] send message failed [channel: Netty4TcpChannel{localAddress=/14.24.178.75:50506, remoteAddress=/14.24.178.77:9300, profile=default}]

Any ideas?  
Best  
Edwin

p.s./ my secure config is OK? The same on every cluster node?

# Enable security features

These docs might help you:

- [Start the Elastic Stack with security enabled | Elasticsearch Guide [8.2] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/8.2/configuring-stack-security.html#stack-start-with-security)

From the description, you might want to use the `kibana-setup` tool that's described there.
