Puertos de red que abrir
9200/TCPREST API (HTTP or HTTPS, default)
Pasos de configuración: Create a monitoring-only Elasticsearch user
Create a role that only holds the cluster privilege monitor, from Kibana (Stack Management, Roles) or with the API.
curl -u elastic -X PUT "https://es.lan:9200/_security/role/dumbmonit" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"cluster":["monitor"]}'Create the user with that role.
curl -u elastic -X PUT "https://es.lan:9200/_security/user/dumbmonit" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"password":"choose-a-long-password","roles":["dumbmonit"]}'OpenSearch: create a role with the cluster permission cluster_monitor in Security, Roles, and map the user to it.
In DumbMonit, enter the address of one node, for example es.lan, then the user and its password.
Elasticsearch 8 and later serve HTTPS with a generated certificate: pick HTTPS, and tick Accept an unverifiable certificate unless you installed your own.
Ojo. The account needs no index privilege: DumbMonit never reads a document. One node reports the whole cluster, so enter a node that is not the one you expect to fail.
