I am interested in setting up users authentication for kibana  
using LDAP.

goal is that when user login he/she can only see certain dashboard with limited access.

I enable Xpack demo on my test server and it worked without any major problem. I also disable it for testing and I got everything back.

what do I need of X-pack, do I need gold or platinum?
