Elasticsearch security

  • XPack is mandatory, all traffic will be encrypted and password protected.

  • Each Elasticsearch server needs to communicate with each other and the firewall ports need to be open. Default transport port: 9300

  • Kibana needs to communicate with the Elasticsearch nodes that are processing Kibana requests.

  • The agents and web server (gateway) need access to the Elasticsearch servers as described in the firewall section. Default port: 9200
