Hi I am trying to send information into the host url of our elasticsearch db. The problem is that I do not know the port number I just know that it is on [http://monitor.production.data.com/elasticsearch](http://monitor.production.data.com/elasticsearch)

but when I put this URL in my output logstash automatically converts this to : [http://monitor.production.data.com:9200/elasticsearch](http://monitor.production.data.com:9200/elasticsearch)

this is my output:

```
output{
    elasticsearch {
    index => "test123-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
    hosts => "http://monitor.production.data.com/elasticsearch"
    manage_template => false
    }
}

```

how do I just make logstash send data to that exact address without adding the 9200?

thank you!

Have you tried using port 80?

`hosts => "http://monitor.production.data.com:80/elasticsearch"`
