SSL between Filebeat and Logstash which is on SAME SERVER

Elastic Stack Beats
1

All my B-ELK stack is running on same servers, say Filebeat on port 5044 ,ES on 9200, LS on 9600 which config-ed to listen Filebeat on port 5044 and finally KIB on 5601.

My doubt is, since I'm developing ELK Log analysis project on a DEV server for very first time, I have this strange doubt and I searched google, unfortunately got awkward results.

Whether SSL configurations can be done b/w Filebeat and Logstash which is running on the same server? If yes , how? If no, why?

Sorry If my question sucks :stuck_out_tongue:

Hi, thanks for your post. The SSL setup for filebeat should be similar if Logstash is running on the same host or a remote host. I'd recommend reviewing the following docs for configuring SSL for filebeat.

Please let us know if you have questions.
