Today we give the HTTP status back within the HTTP response itself and within the JSON response as well:
```sh
curl localhost:9200/
```
```js
{
"status" : 200,
"name" : "Red Wolf",
"version" : {
"number" : "2.0.0",
"build_hash" : "6837a61d8a646a2ac7dc8da1ab3c4ab85d60882d",
"build_timestamp" : "2014-08-19T13:55:56Z",
"build_snapshot" : true,
"lucene_version" : "4.9"
},
"tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}
```
The root endpoint returns basic information about this node, like it's name and ES version etc. The cluster name is an important information that belongs in that list.
