How to ship logs from filebeat to elasticsearch

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to form a setup where my cisco devices syslog to be sent to filebeat and then filebeat will send it to elasticsearch so that it can be viewed on kibana.

Problem: Filebeat error is The requested URL could not be retrieved. 503 service unavailable

Below is my current configuration:

**filebeat server: 172.30.169.51**
--
filebeat.inputs
- type: syslog
enabled: false
paths:
    - /var/log/*.log

- type: filestream
  enabled: false
    - /var/log/*.log

filebeat.config.modules:
  enabled: false
  path: ${path.config}/modules.d/*.yml
  reload.enabled: true

setup.template.settings:
  index.number_of_shards: 1


setup.kibana:
  host: "https://172.30.169.50:5000"
  ssl.verification_mode: "none"
  username: "elastic"
  password: "m4gN3s!@.123"

output.elasticsearch:
   hosts: ["172.30.169.50:9200"]
   ssl.verification_mode: "none"
   username: "elastic"
   password: "m4gN3s!@.123"

indices:
- index: "sbx-%{+yyyy.MM.dd}"
  when.regexp:
   hostname: "^SBX-SS01.*"

processors:
  - add_host_metadata:
      when.not.contains.tags: forwarded
  - add_cloud_metadata: ~
  - add_docker_metadata: ~
  - add_kubernetes_metadata: ~

setup.ilm.overwrite: true

**Troubleshooting:**
**Command was done under filebeat server:**
root@filelogs01-ph:~# nc -zv -w5  172.30.169.50 9200
Connection to 172.30.169.50 9200 port [tcp/*] succeeded!

Thank you so much in advance

Hi Team,

Please ignore this.
This is now solved

In future please don't post pictures of text, logs or code. They are difficult to read, impossible to search and replicate (if it's code), and some people may not be even able to see them :slight_smile:
