| Variable | EXTERNAL_URL | |
| Description | URL that other hosts can use to reach this server | |
| Default | http://localhost:PORT | |
The URL that other hosts can use to reach this host. This is required.
Examples: https://humio01.example.com.
Important
We recommend using a TLS endpoint, and a load balancer. Port 8080 should be used only for testing.
ini
EXTERNAL_URL=http://humio01.lan:8080For example, in a three node cluster, as shown below:
graph LR;
P["LB Proxy"]
HA["Host A"]
HB["Host B"]
HC["Host C"]
P-->HA
P-->HB
P-->HC
The EXTERNAL_URL should be set on each host to match the
hostname of that node, and PUBLIC_URL should be set to the
URL of the Load Balancing proxy server (LB Proxy).
