bind elasticsearch6.x tansport port i.e 9300(default) on 0.0.0.0

[Aman Gupta]

Im not able to access transport port 9300 from outer network, since it is binded locally.

As visible from logs 9300 port listening on localhost and 9200 listening on 0.0.0.0

Faced this issue in ES6.0 version

elasticsearch yaml

cat /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml

cluster.name: XYZ
http.host: 0.0.0.0

Note: network.host doesnt work anymore in ES 6.0.
