# Network settings
|
|
|
|
OpenSearch uses HTTP settings to configure communication with external clients through the REST API and transport settings for internal node-to-node communication within OpenSearch.
|
|
|
|
To learn more about static and dynamic settings, see [Configuring OpenSearch]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/install-and-configure/configuring-opensearch/index/).
|
|
|
|
OpenSearch supports the following common network settings:
|
|
|
|
- `network.host` (Static, list): Binds an OpenSearch node to an address. Use `0.0.0.0` to include all available network interfaces, or specify an IP address assigned to a specific interface. The `network.host` setting is a combination of `network.bind_host` and `network.publish_host` if they are the same value. An alternative to `network.host` is to configure `network.bind_host` and `network.publish_host` separately as needed. See [Advanced network settings](#advanced-network-settings).
|
|
|
|
- `http.port` (Static, single value or range): Binds an OpenSearch node to a custom port or a range of ports for HTTP communication. You can specify an address or a range of addresses. Default is `9200-9300`.
|
|
|
|
- `transport.port` (Static, single value or range): Binds an OpenSearch node to a custom port for communication between nodes. You can specify an address or a range of addresses. Default is `9300-9400`.
|
|
|
|
## Advanced network settings
|
|
|
|
OpenSearch supports the following advanced network settings:
|
|
|
|
- `network.bind_host` (Static, list): Binds an OpenSearch node to an address or addresses for incoming connections. Default is the value in `network.host`.
|
|
|
|
- `network.publish_host` (Static, list): Specifies an address or addresses that an OpenSearch node publishes to other nodes in the cluster so that they can connect to it.
|
|
|
|
## Advanced HTTP settings
|
|
|
|
OpenSearch supports the following advanced network settings for HTTP communication:
|
|
|
|
- `http.host` (Static, list): Sets the address of an OpenSearch node for HTTP communication. The `http.host` setting is a combination of `http.bind_host` and `http.publish_host` if they are the same value. An alternative to `http.host` is to configure `http.bind_host` and `http.publish_host` separately as needed.
|
|
|
|
- `http.bind_host` (Static, list): Specifies an address or addresses to which an OpenSearch node binds to listen for incoming HTTP connections.
|
|
|
|
- `http.publish_host` (Static, list): Specifies an address or addresses that an OpenSearch node publishes to other nodes for HTTP communication.
|
|
|
|
## Advanced transport settings
|
|
|
|
OpenSearch supports the following advanced network settings for transport communication:
|
|
|
|
- `transport.host` (Static, list): Sets the address of an OpenSearch node for transport communication. The `transport.host` setting is a combination of `transport.bind_host` and `transport.publish_host` if they are the same value. An alternative to `transport.host` is to configure `transport.bind_host` and `transport.publish_host` separately as needed.
|
|
|
|
- `transport.bind_host` (Static, list): Specifies an address or addresses to which an OpenSearch node binds to listen for incoming transport connections.
|
|
|
|
- `transport.publish_host` (Static, list): Specifies an address or addresses that an OpenSearch node publishes to other nodes for transport communication.
