Hi all,  
i have two servers with these features:

1. Server1: collects data with Logstash. The data can be saved locally
2. Server2 : takes the data from Server1

The communication can be only from Server2 to Server1 in HTTPS: Server1 cannot start a communication with Server2. In Server2 i want to use another logstash to picks the data from Server1, but i have no idea how to do it.  
Is it possible?Any suggestion?  
Thanks
