**Elasticsearch Cluster Configuration:**

- I would like to build a cluster with 3 Elasticsearch nodes.
- I need assistance configuring the Elasticsearch nodes to ensure they can communicate with each other (local cluster).
- I need to configure Elasticsearch to connect to a remote cluster, such as connecting to another Elasticsearch cluster through appropriate `cluster.remote` and `transport` settings with the correct ports.

Er, most people on this forum are unpaid volunteers, do not work for Elastic, and are not your personal support team.

So, if you have a Elastic support contract, please open a ticket.

If you don't, please at least _try_ to read some documentation first. You may wish to start here.

You _could_ also just ask something like chatGPT, your post reads like a half decent prompt.
