we need to make as IP based elastic search for access through the network

Just map IGIVM with VM Public IP address as below :

Save this file .

Stop elastic search and restart It as below image:-  
Command :-

$systemctl stop elasticsearch.searvice

$ systemctl start elasticsearch.searvice

$ systemctl status elasticsearch.searvice

NOW WE CAN SEE ELASTIC SEARCH IS UP AND RUNNING.
