Documentation for [iptables module](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/7.16/filebeat-module-iptables.html) speaks of 'dashboards for visualizing the log data' and 'module comes with sample dashboards' yet when I reference Dashboard in Kibana all I see is 'Create your first dashboard.' Nothing more.

How can I activate and use the promised dashboard for iptables? Do I have to pay $?

BTW, can't upload screenshots here. Must always use imgur? [Imgur: The magic of the Internet](https://imgur.com/a/tw7LmuN)

Running `filebeat setup --dashboards` will setup the dashboards in Kibana. Have you done that?
