How to use SSL between Filebeat 5 and Kafka 0.10?

Hi.

I am new to Filebeat and Kafka and managed to set them together just fine. I now want to add SSL and don't know where to begin.

I can set Kafka to work with SSL as explained in the official Apache documentation, but don't know how to configure my Filebeat client to actually use it. I mean, which file do I send from my Kafka server to my Filebeat client and what do I set exactly in the Kafka section in the Filebeat yaml config?

Thanks.

Here are the docs for the config options: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/master/kafka-output.html#_tls_3
