Dear Team,

Our scenario is network devices send logs to filebeat. Filebeat send those logs to logstash and logstash send logs to elasticsearch database but we are receive below warning in logstash logs and we didn't receive logs over elasticsearch database.

Please check below log and guide us.

What does your Logstash output looks like? This error message means that it is trying to use an ingest pipeline in Elasticsearch named `filebeat-8.8.2-cef-log-pipeline`, but this ingest pipeline does not exist.

Hi @Kiran_K Welcome to the community.

Perhaps take a look at this [Logstash : Working with Filebeat Modules](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/use-filebeat-modules-kafka.html)

In set 3 just run this command instead of the one the docs show, it will make sure all the assets are loaded (there may be dashboards etc) when you run setup filebeat must be pointing to Kibana and Elasticsearch

`filebeat setup -e`

After you run setup, switch filebeat back to point to logstash... also take a look at the longstash.conf on that doc pages that will ensure that the correct pipelines will get called.
