The [phonetic analyzer](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/7.0/analysis-phonetic.html) is an elasticsearch plugin. Nothing to do with logstash. There is an example of how to configure your index to use that analyzer in the documentation. If you have additional questions you should ask them in the elasticsearch forum.
