To configure a remote cluster in Kibana:

1. Set up a secure connection as needed.
2. Go to the Remote Clusters management page in the navigation menu or use the global search field.
3. Select the appropriate connection type.
4. Specify the Elasticsearch endpoint URL, or the IP address or host name of the remote cluster (ClusterA) followed by the transport port (defaults to 9300). For example, cluster.es.eastus2.staging.azure.foundit.no:9400 or 192.168.1.1:9300.
