Everything is up and running but filebeat cannot contact logstash which is on another machine  
logstash.conf  
input {  
beats {  
port =\> 5044  
}  
}

output {  
elasticsearch {  
hosts =\> ["[http://localhost:9200](http://localhost:9200)"]  
index =\> "%{m3beat-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"  
}  
stdout { codec =\> rubydebug }  
}  
filebeat.yml  
output.logstash:

# The Logstash hosts

hosts: ["10.1.252.21:5044"]

I get the following error in filebeat log:  
48:25.719+0100 ERROR pipeline/output.go:100 Failed to connect to backoff(async(tcp://10.1.252.21:5044)): dial tcp 10.1.252.21:5044: connect: no route to host
