Hi

I need to know if I have a cluster secured by search guard could use Central Managment beats and how could I configure it.

Thank you  
Franco

According to [https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions](https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions) this requires at least a gold license (or a trial).  
Which I guess you don't have as you are using searchguard.

So I'd say: no.

Hi David

we have the platinum fot Elasticsearch but I don't have the xpack security because we have the searchguard license.

So thank you for your feedback and I inform my management.

Bye

Why using search guard when you have a platinum license?

I know that we have only platinum license for all component without x pack security. Is it possible?

Thank you

No. The subscription page I linked to shows that you have access to everything.
