Hi All, I've a server on which Logstash is installed and sending logs to Azure Sentinel. It works just fine but lately any other week I'd see the below entry in the `logstash-plain.log` file and it seems that the connection is lost for some brief moments. `[2022-01-05T05:46:14,928][ERROR][logstash.outputs.azureloganalytics][main] Exception in posting data to Azure Loganalytics. [Exception: 'Timed out connecting to server]'` I mean, its self-explanatory that the plugin lost connection to Sentinel but this was not the case before. And I was wondering if this merely has to do with net connection or Logstash might be complaining about something? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/6/e66b87c6cbc16d4a532d0281786abfd3a2c10ade.png) Actually when I checked it seems its loosing connection every day ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/7/b/7b8f5ccedfe12afd96de5045ac941eae6d42599e.jpeg) ---
