Hello Team,

I have a syslog server which accepts logs from a group of servers.  
I have installed logstash in the same syslog server.  
I want logstash to convert syslog into jason format and store the converted logs as an index in elastic search.  
Please suggest me possiblities to do this task.  
Thanks in advance.
