Hello. Tell me how to set it up correctly. There is a server srvlog, it collects all logs from domain controllers (forward event).  
How to configure WinLogbeat to send logs received by this server?  
My config now:  
winlogbeat.event\_logs:

- name: Application  
ignore\_older: 72h
- name: Security
- name: System

tags: winlogbeat

output.logstash:  
hosts: ["192.168.1.4:5044"]

logging.level: info  
logging.to\_files: true  
logging.files:  
path: C:/Program Files/Winlogbeat/logs  
name: winlogbeat  
keepfiles: 7

I need to receive events for authorization and access of AD users
