Check this [answer](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/elasticsearch-cluster-across-multiple-docker-hosts/358314/2) on a similar question. Basically you need to have the `network.publish_host` with the IP address of your docker host, and also use `network.bind_host` as `0.0.0.0`. Something like this in each compose: ```auto - network.bind_host=0.0.0.0 - network.publish_host=DOCKER-HOST-IP ``` The documentation for these settings are [here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-network.html#advanced-network-settings). --- _[View the full topic](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/setting-up-es-multi-node-on-multiple-hosts/360063)._
