On my second day of searching for a minimalist solution. I can get syslog data directly into ES using filebeat but none of the syslog headers are getting parsed so it's kind of useless. Do I need to use logstash for this job. Using at home 5a at home an work lab if it matters.

Does Filebeat need logstash to process syslog headers?
