Hi, I would like to know what port is used by curator when it sends out snapshots to AWS S3.

Thanks.

Curator makes calls to elasticsearch REST port (default 9200).

yeah, I know that, I wanted to know what port it sends out snapshots . Is it the `HTTP Port (80)` ?

Curator just communicates with elasticsearch.

So

> what port is used by curator when it sends out snapshots to AWS S3.

will never happen. Elasticsearch will send out snapshots to S3.

I guess it's `443` for https (default).
