I using logstatsh output google pubsub plugin to consume my GCP pub sub messages. I have successfully installed elasticsearch, kibana, logstatsh and output plugin. I am following the tutorial on [this](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-inputs-google_pubsub.html) page.

After generating config file as suggested, I am getting below error.

Also, ping and curl for `pubsub.googleapis.com` is not working as expected. I have crossed checked my proxy settings and those are correct.
