Why does my SSL client fail to connect to Logstash?edit


  • Make sure that Logstash is running and you can connect to it. First, try to ping the Logstash host to verify that you can reach it from the host running the Beat. Then use either nc or telnet to make sure that the port is available. For example:

    ping <hostname or IP>
    telnet <hostname or IP> 5044


    For testing purposes only, you can set insecure: true to disable hostname checking.
