Hi I'm really confuse with following architecture pipeline

My Goal is to send transport logs to filebeat =\> Logstash =\> Kafka =\> Logstash Parser =\> Elasticsearch =\> Kibana

also I would like to set up all individual servers for each processing as I have 600 client servers send 1tb ingesting every day so I'm blocked @kafka configuration I will go one step at time to explain my issue

filebeat =\> logstash server with following configuration ( Sucess )

#----------------------------- Logstash output --------------------------------  
output.logstash:

# The Logstash hosts

```
 hosts: ["10.146.134.15:5044"]

```

Logstash =\> kafka

input {  
beats {  
port =\> 5044  
type =\> "syslog"  
#ssl =\> true  
#ssl\_certificate =\> "/etc/pki/tls/certs/filebeat.crt"  
#ssl\_key =\> "/etc/pki/tls/private/filebeat.key"  
}  
}

output {  
kafka {  
bootstrap\_servers =\> "10.146.134.17:9092"  
topic\_id =\> ["beats"]  
}  
}

Kafka to Logstash not sure how to tell kafka to send logs to Logstash But I have setup logstash server to  
Kafka server runs perfect with out any error messeges

and finally my logstash parser to elasticsearch configuration

input {  
kafka {  
bootstrap\_servers =\> "10.146.134.17:9092"  
topics =\> ["beats"]  
}  
}  
output {  
elasticsearch {  
hosts =\> ["10.146.134.12:8888"]  
index =\> "elasticse"  
}  
}

Not sure were I have did wrong but any input would be help me to move forward.
