This was my first setup on a server.
Followed the following article https://docs.fluentd.org/how-to-guides/free-alternative-to-splunk-by-fluentd
rsyslog ->FLuentd->eleastic search->Kibina
curl -X GET http://localhost:9200
{
"name" : "8bEX-Y1",
"cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
"cluster_uuid" : "3dZBrwNCQ_qXQ_9n7k9YHg",
"version" : {
"number" : "6.8.3",
"build_flavor" : "default",
"build_type" : "rpm",
"build_hash" : "0c48c0e",
"build_date" : "2019-08-29T19:05:24.312154Z",
"build_snapshot" : false,
"lucene_version" : "7.7.0",
"minimum_wire_compatibility_version" : "5.6.0",
"minimum_index_compatibility_version" : "5.0.0"
},
"tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}
curl -X GET localhost:9200/_cat/indices?v

any help would be appreciated.
