I am new to ELK. I have an ESXI environment and I created a single-node ELK stack using this guide: https://burnhamforensics.com/2018/08/14/creating-a-single-node-elk-stack/.
When I access the URL (http://192.168.1.12:9200/) I receive the text output below.
{

"cluster_name" : "REDACTED",
"cluster_uuid" : "REDACTED",

}
I did see a community post regarding a similar issue, but the verified solution did not work for me. I am also hoping this post will help me get a better understanding of ELK in general too. I also started to configure Beats and that should be working, but have not checked the logs yet.
