elasticsearch version: 5.0.2 java version: jdk-8u111 issue: I install my elasticsearch on the server and I want to visit it from localhost. How can I config the network.host. I get some solutions from website, config network.host 0.0.0.0, but it did not work and appeared new problems：“bound or publishing to a non-loopback or non-link-local address, enforcing bootstrap checks ERROR: bootstrap checks failed”. Anybody who can give me some help. Thank you. `[2016-12-01T15:57:35,487][INFO][o.e.n.Node] [] initializing ...
