I'm trying to filter ip addresses using Xpack Security (aka Shield). As far as I understand the documentation (https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/current/ip-filtering.html), it should block beats from given hosts. However, after editing configuration and restarting Elasticsearch, nothing happens - beat is allowed through anyway.
In my case the ELK is v5.0 and it runs on Debian Jessie.
Here's the config file:
# ---------------------------------- Various -----------------------------------
#
# Disable starting multiple nodes on a single system:
#
#node.max_local_storage_nodes: 1
#
# Require explicit names when deleting indices:
#
#action.destructive_requires_name: true
#
#
#-------------xpack security------------
#
#
xpack.security.transport.filter.allow: "192.168.10.11"
xpack.security.transport.filter.deny: _all
#
What am I doing wrong? I believe it's something obvious, since the config is rather simple...
Many thanks for your suggestions!
