I am new to elastic search but fascinated with it's powerful ability.
I have 2 subnets; A and B in my virtual KVM lab, I want a server in A to send log files to an elasticsearch server in B. I have set up elasticsearch/kibana/logstash on the Server in subnet B
I am ready to install filebeats on the client server in A.
Kindly enlighten me, do I need to install the entire ELK stack on the client server in A in order to use filebeats from there as suggested in the documentation here
Thank you
@threeas Hey, no you don't need to install ELK stack on A, you just need Filebeat on A and ELK stack on B. Configure Filebeats input to get logs at A and output to send logs to either Logstash or ElasticSearch.
