Hi.

We are starting to work with Elastic and Kibana so we don't have much experience with this tool. I installed Elastic in a cento 7 with the steps:

1.- rpm --import [https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch](https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch)  
2.- I created file elasticsearch.repo in /etc/yum.repos.d/  
3.- sudo yum install --enablerepo=elasticsearch elasticsearch  
4.- sudo -i service elasticsearch start  
5.- sudo -i service elasticsearch status

**Status Response**  
" elasticsearch.service - Elasticsearch  
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/elasticsearch.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)

Jun 10 16:21:07 DataLake.localdomain systemd[1]: Started Elasticsearch."

Then install kibana on the same server with the following procedure:

1.- rpm --import [https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch](https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch)  
2.- I created file kibana.repo in the /etc/yum.repos.d/  
3.- sudo yum install kibana  
4.- sudo -i service kibana start  
5.- sudo -i service kibana status

**Status Response**  
kibana is running

6.- curl -I [http://127.0.0.1:5601](http://127.0.0.1:5601)

**Curl Response**  
[root@DataLake ~]# curl -I [http://127.0.0.1:5601](http://127.0.0.1:5601)

Does not open the page when entering [http://IP:5601/](http://IP:5601/)

Am I missing something else to configure?. or is it a problem with my machine?.

Thanks a lot. Regards

Rodrigo

@Rodrigo_Ceballos by default, Kibana binds to localhost and thus is only available from localhost. You need to set `server.host` to the IP address or DNS name of the server in your `kibana.yml` in order to make it remotely accessible.
