Secure traffic via HTTPS - using kafka.output

Elastic Stack Beats
1

I'd like to start using elastic-agent but doing so requires that I setup xpack security.

In the docs (here) it gives an example for sending data directly to elasticsearch.

We use 'kafka.output'.

Is this not supported for TLS security? Should I just stop at the 'minimal security' level?

Looks like kafka as an avenue from hosts->elastic-agent->elastic-server isn't supported.

Correct, it is not supported yet, but is a work in progress, you can follow [meta] Implement the kafka output · Issue #116 · elastic/elastic-agent-shipper · GitHub
