I am having issues connecting to kibana via browser. The service started successfully via cli but I'm unable to connect on port 5601 - "refused connection".

**Kibana.yml file:**

# For more configuration options see the configuration guide for Kibana in

# [Elastic Docs | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/index.html)

# =================== System: Kibana Server ===================

# Kibana is served by a back end server. This setting specifies the port to use.

server.port: 5601

# Specifies the address to which the Kibana server will bind. IP addresses and host names are both valid values.

# The default is 'localhost', which usually means remote machines will not be able to connect.

# To allow connections from remote users, set this parameter to a non-loopback address.

server.host: "10.1.30.13"

# Enables you to specify a path to mount Kibana at if you are running behind a proxy.

# Use the `server.rewriteBasePath` setting to tell Kibana if it should remove the basePath

# from requests it receives, and to prevent a deprecation warning at startup.

# This setting cannot end in a slash.

#server.basePath: ""

# Specifies whether Kibana should rewrite requests that are prefixed with

# `server.basePath` or require that they are rewritten by your reverse proxy.

# Defaults to `false`.

#server.rewriteBasePath: false

# Specifies the public URL at which Kibana is available for end users. If

# `server.basePath` is configured this URL should end with the same basePath.

#server.publicBaseUrl: ""

# The maximum payload size in bytes for incoming server requests.

#server.maxPayload: 1048576

# The Kibana server's name. This is used for display purposes.

#server.name: "your-hostname"

# =================== System: Kibana Server (Optional) ===================

# Enables SSL and paths to the PEM-format SSL certificate and SSL key files, respectively.

# These settings enable SSL for outgoing requests from the Kibana server to the browser.

#server.ssl.enabled: false  
#server.ssl.certificate: /path/to/your/server.crt  
#server.ssl.key: /path/to/your/server.key

# =================== System: Elasticsearch ===================

# The URLs of the Elasticsearch instances to use for all your queries.

elasticsearch.hosts: ["[https://10.1.30.11:9200](https://10.1.30.11:9200)"]

# =================== System: Logging ===================

# Set the value of this setting to off to suppress all logging output, or to debug to log everything. Defaults to 'info'

#logging.root.level: debug

# Enables you to specify a file where Kibana stores log output.

logging:  
appenders:  
file:  
type: file  
fileName: /var/log/kibana/kibana.log  
layout:  
type: json  
root:  
appenders:  
- default  
- file

# layout:

# type: json

# Logs queries sent to Elasticsearch.

#logging.loggers:

# - name: elasticsearch.query

# level: debug

# Logs http responses.

#logging.loggers:

# - name: http.server.response

# level: debug

# Logs system usage information.

#logging.loggers:

# - name: metrics.ops

# level: debug

# =================== System: Other ===================

# The path where Kibana stores persistent data not saved in Elasticsearch. Defaults to data

#path.data: data

# Specifies the path where Kibana creates the process ID file.

pid.file: /run/kibana/kibana.pid

# Set the interval in milliseconds to sample system and process performance

# metrics. Minimum is 100ms. Defaults to 5000ms.

#ops.interval: 5000

# Specifies locale to be used for all localizable strings, dates and number formats.

# Supported languages are the following: English (default) "en", Chinese "zh-CN", Japanese "ja-JP", French "fr-FR".

#i18n.locale: "en"

# =================== Frequently used (Optional)===================

# =================== Saved Objects: Migrations ===================

# Saved object migrations run at startup. If you run into

**Elasticsearch.yml**  
======================== Elasticsearch Configuration =========================

# 

# NOTE: Elasticsearch comes with reasonable defaults for most settings.

# Before you set out to tweak and tune the configuration, make sure you

# understand what are you trying to accomplish and the consequences.

# 

# The primary way of configuring a node is via this file. This template lists

# the most important settings you may want to configure for a production cluster.

# 

# Please consult the documentation for further information on configuration options:

# [Elasticsearch Guide | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/index.html)

# 

# ---------------------------------- Cluster -----------------------------------

# 

# Use a descriptive name for your cluster:

# 

#cluster.name: my-application

# 

# ------------------------------------ Node ------------------------------------

# 

# Use a descriptive name for the node:

# 

node.name: node-1

# 

# Add custom attributes to the node:

# 

#node.attr.rack: r1

# 

# ----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------

# 

# Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):

# 

path.data: /var/lib/elasticsearch

# 

# Path to log files:

# 

path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch

# 

# ----------------------------------- Memory -----------------------------------

# 

# Lock the memory on startup:

# 

bootstrap.memory\_lock: true

# 

# Make sure that the heap size is set to about half the memory available

# on the system and that the owner of the process is allowed to use this

# limit.

# 

# Elasticsearch performs poorly when the system is swapping the memory.

# 

# ---------------------------------- Network -----------------------------------

# 

# By default Elasticsearch is only accessible on localhost. Set a different

# address here to expose this node on the network:

# 

network.host: 10.1.30.11

# 

# By default Elasticsearch listens for HTTP traffic on the first free port it

# finds starting at 9200. Set a specific HTTP port here:

# 

Enable security features  
xpack.security.enabled: true

xpack.security.enrollment.enabled: true

# Enable encryption for HTTP API client connections, such as Kibana, Logstash, and Agents

xpack.security.http.ssl:  
enabled: true  
keystore.path: certs/http.p12

# Enable encryption and mutual authentication between cluster nodes

xpack.security.transport.ssl:  
enabled: true  
verification\_mode: certificate  
keystore.path: certs/transport.p12  
truststore.path: certs/transport.p12

# Create a new cluster with the current node only

# Additional nodes can still join the cluster later

cluster.initial\_master\_nodes: ["localhost.localdomain"]

# Allow HTTP API connections from anywhere

# Connections are encrypted and require user authentication

http.host: 0.0.0.0

# Allow other nodes to join the cluster from anywhere

# Connections are encrypted and mutually authenticated

#transport.host: 0.0.0.0

#----------------------- END SECURITY AUTO CONFIGURATION -

Hi Mark,

Thanks for reaching out.  
Please, how do I do that?  
I have no idea, but I am willing to re-format the text.  
Any pointer?  
Thanks.

Edit your post and put 3 backquotes at the top of the text and 3 backquotes at the bottom. Then it will be displayed exactly as-is without formatting.

Backquotes are these little things: ``` (sometimes you have to find them on your keyboard with an ALT or ALT-GR key, press it, and then follow-up by immediately press SPACE).
