Hi, i am trying to access elastic search using my server public ip address since last week but not able to do so. i have tried so many solutions but not succeeded. My elasticsearch.yml file settings are like: **http.host: _my server public ip address_** **http.port: 9200** **cluster.name: pld** i want to access like this: [http://myserverip:9200/](http://myserverip:9200/) Please someone help me Thanks in advance Muneer Hassan ---

Share your elasticsearch logs. Please format your code, logs or configuration files using `` icon as explained in [this guide](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/about-the-elasticsearch-category/21) and not the citation button.

Can you bind to the public ip then? I hope that it's not public on internet though. ---

So you don't have a network card exposing `54.210.102.235` IP. You probably need to change some network settings (not on elasticsearch side) and "route" whatever is coming to the public IP to this private IP where elasticsearch is bound. ---

Did you look at [https://www.elastic.co/cloud](https://www.elastic.co/cloud) ? Cloud by elastic is the way to have access to X-Pack. Think about what is there yet like Security, Monitoring, Reporting and what is coming like Canvas, SQL... And everything is managed for you. ---
