Hi @Tataelastic What ip addresses are all the server configured to listen on, 10.8.30.220, 0.0.0.0, 127.0.0.1? My hunch is maybe the apm-server is listening on the localhost (127.0.0.1) and therefor not listening on 10.8.30.220. Baring that it could be a firewall setting (often seen with RHEL). ---
