Config Elastic Packetbeat graylog

hi, guyes

I install packetbeat version 7.4.2 on VM linux centos7 machine
i used graylog version 3.1
even add file graylog-plugin-beats-2.4.0-beta.1.jar to /usr/share/graylog-server/plagin/

and test connection packetbeat is OK
//
[root@centos_Host ~]# packetbeat test output
logstash: 192.100.102.25:15999…
connection…
parse host… OK
dns lookup… OK
addresses: 192.100.102.25
dial up… OK
TLS… WARN secure connection disabled
talk to server… OK //

but even though Network IO The show is receiving a packet,
in graylog input nothing for see

please guide me
:pray:

Please don’t install beast plugin for graylog, it is deprecated.
Normal Input - Beast would be enough.
Check also this blog post:

And this:

even add file graylog-plugin-beats-2.4.0-beta.1.jar to /usr/share/graylog-server/plagin/

why did you do this?

The beats input is part of the Graylog core. Having that non matching plugin will confuse/destroy only your Graylog.


  • Remove the 2.4 beta plugin.
  • configure the input and add a static field. Search for that static field not for the input id.
  • check your Graylog server.log for errors.

Hi,
very, very thank you for answering
OK I removed the Beat plugin But there is still the problem
I see Packet in Network IO and sending traffic to Graylog input
But I don’t see anything filed
Why do you think?
How do beats work in Garylog in general?

Hi, jan
Thank you for your guidance
Okay. I didn’t know beats input is part of the Graylog core
1- I Remove the 2.4 beta plugin
2- configre and add static filed
3- check your Graylog server.log for errors.
but : log error

Hi, jan

Unfortunately, the installation of this plugin (graylog-plugin-beats-2.4.0-beta.1.jar) disrupted Garylog server performance.
In the new Graylog node I can see all Packet (إٍBEATS ==> packetbeat, filebeat, metricbeat,heartbeat) without any problems

Thank you for your good guidance
