Hello . I have packetbeat installed on one machine and I like to send the logs to a space in a kibana that is on another machine. Can I define the ip of this machine along with the space in the settings file or should I send it to logstash? ---

Are you looking to restrict access to this data, or do you want to logically separate it out? At the end of the day spaces are a collection of indices and those indices are still stored in Elasticsearch. So you can assign any indices to a space in Kibana. ---

Logically separate it. Ok so I just have to send the data to the right index ? ---

Do you want to split this specific Packetbeat data out into a different index from existing Packetbeat data? Or do you want all the Packetbeat data separated out from other data in Elasticsearch? ---

I want the data from each elasticsearch to be in one space. ---

How do I distinguish the indices of one space and the other? ---

It might be worth reading [Spaces | Kibana Guide [8.8] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/xpack-spaces.html) to get a bit of an idea of how spaces work. ---
