hi everyone I have recently installed filbeat on to my systems so that i can push the logs to logstash. the problem i am facing is that the systems keep crashing and i believe it is because of the data congestions through the port assigned. Is there any way to reduce the bandwidth of the filebeat forwarding port? ---
