Kibana remote access on windows

whata values do i have to change and to what in the kibana.yml file to get this to work

do i have to remove the "#" from the lines that i change, i notice they are there in the original file?

my current non-working kibana.yml is below. I can get access through localhost with out any issues, also on port 80.

I've opend relevant ports on the windows firewall for in/outbound ports and added a rule to cover the kibana service.


# Kibana is served by a back end server. This setting specifies the port to use.
#server.port: 80
# 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: "172.17.20.201"
# Enables you to specify a path to mount Kibana at if you are running behind a proxy. This only affects
# the URLs generated by Kibana, your proxy is expected to remove the basePath value before forwarding requests
# to Kibana. This setting cannot end in a slash.
#server.basePath: ""

# The maximum payload size in bytes for incoming server requests.
#server.maxPayloadBytes: 1048576

# The Kibana server's name. This is used for display purposes.
#server.name: "srvp00081.XXX.local"

# The URL of the Elasticsearch instance to use for all your queries.
#elasticsearch.url: "http://localhost:9200"

@ssi you'll want to change the server.host to the IP address of the network adapter that is publicly accessible.

Do I need to remove the "#" at the beginning of the line also ? Thanks for the reply

@ssi yes, the # comments out the line, you'll have to remove it to get that setting used.
