I've configure rsyslog server logs are coming at the server side

```auto
input {
tcp {
port => 10514
}
}
output {
elasticsearch 
{
hosts => "localhost:9200"
index => "client-syslog-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
} }

```

the rsyslog logs are coming on `/var/log/remote/server/`(server side)  
no index is created in kibana.  
I also tried this

```auto
input {
syslog {
port => 10514
}
}

```

nothing works
