Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch receives a request that has successfully passed the authentication process but is having issues with the transport layer. This could be due to network issues, incorrect configuration, or a problem with the security realm. To resolve this, you can check the network connectivity, ensure that the transport layer is correctly configured, and verify the settings of the security realm.
