I am new to the elk stack I am running kibana in a VM with NAT I am able to ping the virtual machine from the host but when I navigate to [http://VMipaddress:9200](http://VMipaddress:9200) it gets timed out. Thanks in advance. ---

9200 is the Elasticsearch port - try 5601 (or the port you specified in your Kibana config file) ---

do note that curl [http://vmipaddress:5601/app/home](http://vmipaddress:5601/app/home) on the vm works fine and gives the appropriate output. ---

Did you set `server.host` correctly in your config file? see [Configure Kibana | Kibana Guide [8.11] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/settings.html) > This setting specifies the host of the back end server. To allow remote users to connect, set the value to the IP address or DNS name of the Kibana server ---

I have already set the `sever.host` value to 0.0.0.0 still the same timed out error ---

Please check whether your VM is reachable at all from the outside (besides Kibana). Maybe you have to allow the port to be accessible? ---

I am unable to connect to any port not even ssh and also not able to connect from other virtual machines. ---

Looks like this is an issue with your VM config in that case, not Kibana. ---
