I have started ES and trying to fetch indices on kibana-4 but getting error while fire command on powershell  
command:

Output:  
2016/07/08 05:12:35.119557 client.go:302: DBG Ping request failed with: Head [http://search-hmetest-tfy67zzlrfp7behwmnc2](http://search-hmetest-tfy67zzlrfp7behwmnc2)

onnected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host

and on kiban setting panel show  
Unable to fetch mapping. Do you have indices matching the pattern?

Topbeat isn't able to connect to Elasticsearch. That's a network connectivity issue that we can't really help you with.

If the computer that Topbeat runs on can't connect to port 9200 on your ES server then it's a network problem that has nothing to do with Topbeat. I don't know your network topology so I have no idea who you should talk to. It could be a local firewall, an AWS setting, or something in between. Good luck.

Yes issue resolve after apply 443 port to host because AWS ES only access through the **https** port
