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?

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.

[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/configuration-ssl.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/configuration-ssl.html)

Please let us know if you have questions.
