I have a 4gb ram machine that works as a DB server for a ios/webapp. On that machine I only have Elasticsearch and MySql installed.

What I want to do now is to only allow connections to ES from two IP addresses. The two servers that hosts the ios and webapp.

Do I set these ip addresses in the ES conf file?:

  • network.host
  • network.bind_host
  • network.publish_host

Those options are to manage what IP will the server use to listen for the incoming connections. I would recommend that you use Ubuntu firewall to controll who has access to the ES port, or you can use a plugin from Elastic, Shield, that provides that feature (as described in Shield documentation.
