Setting publish_address for logstash

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

The machine that I run logstash process has two network interfaces (public
and private) and it looks like the logstash process picks up my private IP
address as the "publish_address" by default. As I use the option "node", it
is not able to join the cluster as this address is not visible externally.
Master node is in a different network. Could someone suggest how can I
specifically set the publish address for the logstash process? I know this
option is available for the elastic search processes in its config file
(elasticsearch.yml) but not aware of how to set this for the logstash
process.

Thanks
Sijo Mathew

bind_host option did the trick!

Now I understand!

I put the bind_host setting on the output section, and now it is working!

An excerpt of my logstash.conf:
output {
if "127.0.0.1" not in [message] {
elasticsearch {
host => "elasticsearch-server"
index => "logstash-haproxy-bsa-provserpro-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
cluster => "elasticsearch-diretorio"
bind_host => "this-logstash-server"
}
}
}

Thanks
