Good morning guys, I'm trying to access my elasticsearch but so far without success.  
I installed it on my centos8 virtual machine and it is already running. I gave a netstat -na to see and it says that I have to enable the port

is getting this error  
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 172.31.25.200 port 9200: Connection refused

[centos@ip-localhost ~]$ netstat -na | grep 9200  
tcp6 0 0 127.0.0.1:9200 :::\* LISTEN  
tcp6 0 0 ::1:9200 :::\* LISTEN

I already configured it in:  
/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml  
and nothing works.
