Hello, I wanted to set up a cluster with some nodes and I wanted to install packetbeat on each node so I could monitor the network and then send all the data to the node's packetbeat index.x . It was possible? What would be the best architecture?

That all depends on how much data you expect to collect - both the amount and how fast it comes it.
