I want to get internal ip address in as a field value in filebeat. currently only global ips indexed into elastic. why is that ?

indexed json i got from elastic as below

```
{
  "_index": "filebeat-6.4.3-2019.02.25",
  "_type": "doc",
  "_id": "kfC3I2kBtCJwrx4ApvIL",
  "_score": 1,
  "_source": {
    "source": "C:\\inetpub\\logs\\LogFiles\\W3SVC1\\u_ex190225.log",
    "message": "2019-02-25 08:13:27 10.100.116.56 GET /Citrix/Roaming/accounts - 443 - 10.100.4.227 libwww-perl/6.05 - 200 0 0 0",
    "offset": 15215747,
    "tags": [
      "beats_input_codec_plain_applied"
    ],
    "@version": "1",
    "prospector": {
      "type": "log"
    },
    "beat": {
      "hostname": "HAMXSF",
      "name": "HAMXSF",
      "version": "6.4.3"
    },
    "host": {
      "name": "HAMXSF"
    },
    "fileset": {
      "name": "access",
      "module": "iis"
    },
    "input": {
      "type": "log"
    },
    "@timestamp": "2019-02-25T08:13:50.886Z"
  },
  "fields": {
    "@timestamp": [
      "2019-02-25T08:13:50.886Z"
    ]
  }
}

```

in the original log there is internal ip data, but in elastic field it's absent. how to fix it ?

Could you please share your configuration formatted using `</>`? Have you uploaded the pipeline provided by the module?

In your configuration there is nothing which sets parsing IIS events. You could use the `iis/access` filebeat module: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/6.6/filebeat-module-iis.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/6.6/filebeat-module-iis.html)

You have set "enabled" to "false". Kindly re-verify it by setting it to "true"

If someone enables modules in Filebeat, there is no need to enable inputs in the configuration.
