Hi Jon, thanks for your quick replay!

No reverse proxy is used in my case.  
Below the debug of Kibana session when I get the "unknown error":

I understand that the problem was _TCP close connection_ after 120 seconds. But in Kibana I set the request timeout to 300 seconds:

```
elasticsearch.requestTimeout: 300000

```

I means is **node.js** to keep the response timeout too low for my case: is it possible update the value? If yes where is the parameter?

Thanks a lot for your time!
