So I want to install Elasticsearch with Kibana and FluentD, I have FluentD pushing all data to rsyslog but I am currently on this page:

But don't know what to do. I looked on Google but all the tutorials on there are outdated. Any suggestions?

I don't know fluentd, but it'd have an index name/pattern in it's config that defines the ES output so that it knows which host to push to and which index name to use.  
That index name/pattern is what you need to use here.

If you don't know check `curl host:9200/_cat/indices` to list all indices, and you should discover it easily.
