I've problems with elasticsearch plugin in general, bigdesk, head, HQ etc...

i need not port open 9200 port to the outside.

I put my apache configuration for the kibana side:

ProxyRequests On  
ProxyPreserveHost On

/# Redireccion para kibana  
ProxyPass "/logs" [http://serverhostname:5601](http://serverhostname:5601)  
ProxyPassReverse "/logs" [http://serverhostname:5601](http://serverhostname:5601)

/# Redireccion para elasticsearch

ProxyPass "/els" [http://serverhostname:9200](http://serverhostname:9200)  
ProxyPassReverse "/els" [http://serverhostname:9200](http://serverhostname:9200)

/# Redireccion para Bigdesk

ProxyPass "/bigdesk" [http://serverhostname:9200/\_plugin/bigdesk](http://serverhostname:9200/_plugin/bigdesk) (my problems is here)  
ProxyPassReverse "/bigdesk" [http://serverhostname:9200/\_plugin/bigdesk](http://serverhostname:9200/_plugin/bigdesk) (my problems is here)

/# Proxy options

Order Allow,Deny  
Allow from all  
AuthType Basic  
AuthName "LogServer"  
AuthUserFile /example/htpasswd.controlusers  
Require valid-user

Order Allow,Deny  
Allow from all  
AuthType Basic  
AuthName "ELS Server"  
AuthUserFile /example/htpasswd.controlusers  
Require valid-user  
\*I sustituded some parameters for the security og my company, don't worry.

When i try to open [http://myserver/bigdesk](http://myserver/bigdesk) only works if i put the port :9200 but is just to need exclude, the other locations /els and /logs works correctly.

Attach the screenshot,i clean the personal data. The proxy permit pass through but don't put the port and to this way don't work.

Please i appreciated any help, thx so much. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/2/2589d8020ad46404431c62c06e1474ae39a2617c.jpg)
