        # networks.See https://github.com/firehol/netdata/issues/164
        bind socket to IP = 192.168.0.111

I am Using CentOS 7.x

I have installed and the service is running but I can't access the port 19999.

I have added a rule using this post

viewtopic.php?t=16632

But even then I can't access the GUI at this port.

Regards.
