I have installed ELK stack on the server and all the services are working fine. I am able to get the success response when querying the elasticsearch and kibana ports usin curl:

sudo curl -i [http://localhost:5601](http://localhost:5601)  
HTTP/1.1 200 OK  
kbn-name: kibana  
kbn-version: 5.6.2  
cache-control: no-cache  
content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8  
content-length: 217  
accept-ranges: bytes  
Date: Tue, 03 Oct 2017 14:51:23 GMT  
Connection: keep-alive

sudo curl -i [http://localhost:9200](http://localhost:9200)  
{  
"name" : "tKje9\_b",  
"cluster\_name" : "elasticsearch",  
"cluster\_uuid" : "RNf1u8YxT2mn17SPnMtx8A",  
"version" : {  
"number" : "5.6.2",  
"build\_hash" : "57e20f3",  
"build\_date" : "2017-09-23T13:16:45.703Z",  
"build\_snapshot" : false,  
"lucene\_version" : "6.6.1"  
},  
"tagline" : "You Know, for Search"  
}

Hey!

So you are running `curl` locally on the server which indicates that Kibana and ES have started up fine.

When you try to access the Kibana endpoint via `SERVER_IP:5601` where do you try and access it from? Does the server have firewall polices that allow you to access port `5601` ?

If you do you `telnet SERVER_IP 5601` from a machine other than the one running kibana, what do you see?

Thanks @mujtabahussain for the update. I was able to access the URL after changing the server.host entry to ""0.0.0.0" in kibana.yml file.
