Using ssl between filebeat client and logstash server

Hi All

i created the required certificate and the ssl communication between filebeat client and logstah server .

Then i ran the wireshark on the logstash server to check whether that communication is encrypted between . but i couldn't find any encrypted information ( saying SSL or TLS in packet) . in wireshak capture . IS it a normal behavior . please advice

filebeat

filebeat:
prospectors:
-
paths:
- /var/log/nginx/access.log

  document_type: nginx-access


  input_type: log

registry_file: /var/lib/filebeat/registry

output:

logstash:
hosts: ["alogstash.ihk.com:5044"]

index: private.nginx.ihk.org

tls:
  certificate_authorities: ["/etc/filebeat/ssl/rootCA.crt"]

  certificate: "/etc/filebeat/ssl/host.crt"

  certificate_key: "/etc/filebeat/ssl/host.key"

ssl => true
ssl_certificate => "/etc/logstash/ssl/host.crt"
ssl_key => "/etc/logstash/ssl/host.key"
}

filter {

if [type] == "nginx-access" {
grok {
match => { "message" => "%{COMBINEDAPACHELOG}" }
}
}

output {

stdout { }

if [type] == "nginx-access" {
elasticsearch {
hosts => ["localhost:9200"]
index => "private.nginx.ihk.org-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
}
}
