Initial guess is the host firewall. You're probably talking about the Windows machine that has been discussed elsewhere. All recent Windows versions come with a firewall that is enabled by default and will block all incoming connections from other machines, unless it is configured to allow them. SolrCloud relies heavily on its nodes being able to talk to each other over the network. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc766312(v=ws.10).aspx If I'm right, you could just turn off the firewall, but I don't generally recommend that for client systems. It's something I often do on server systems, but only when there's another firewall protecting them. For your system, you should probably leave the firewall enabled and allow the traffic for Solr to get through the firewall. If you choose to allow traffic by program, then the program in this case will be the Java executable that is used to start Solr. If you upgrade Java, you may need to allow it again. You can choose to allow it by TCP port, in which case you'll need to know what port Solr is using. The default port is 8983. Thanks, Shawn
