Hello,

This is my architecture:

 ![logstash](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/9/4/94ed66a75dcf36596750463d6369960c8075a10c.png)

For Windows, I have this logstash configuration:

```
input {
  beats {
    port => 5000
    tags => ["windows"]

  }
 }

output {
  if "windows" in [tags] {
  gelf {
  host => "192.168.1.206"
  port => 12201
  }
 }
}

```

That works, but I want to try to use beats output, but I don’t find the good syntax.

If anyone can help me.

Thank you.

</div>

On my test I try this output:

```auto
output {
  if "windows" in [tags] {
  beats {
  host => "192.168.1.206"
  port => 12201
  }
 }
}

```

But that not works.
