Access to a Kibana dashboard is subject to an IP-based access policy that limits access based on an AWS convention. The easiest way is to ensure that you ask with an IP that is unlocked.
Preconditions
You need access to jumphost with you personal Openssh access key. Access an environment via OpenSSH or Putty
SSH Forwarding Setup
The first step is to build an SSH forwarding on your local computer.
In the case of Kibana, there are 2 special features to consider.
A forward to the dest_port 443 must be established, since access is via HTTPS
Dest_server is not the complete URL of the Kibana endpoint, but only the domain name
