Finally - complete tutorial announcement
Hello out there,
It's true, I have written down all the commands which are necessary to get ELK + Pfsense working together. It's fully tested and worked like a charm at a lanparty last weekend. So it was on a brandnew machine and on a different hypervisor. I will publish the tutorial in the upcomming week on wednesday. I also made all the commands with the newest Elasticsearch version: Elasticsearch-6.2.3.rpm for example.
The tutorial is based on a fresh CentOS 7 minimal installation. If you have a different operating system not all steps are necessary or will work as I described in the tutorial. You can always contact me via my website if you have questions and problems. I try to help as far I can. Maybe I will add a comment function later this year.
Tutorial - Elasticsearch V.6.2.3 / Logstash V.6.2.3 / Kibana V.6.2.3 + Pfsense 2.4.3 on CentOS 7 minimal
First of all I want to say sorry about my mistakes you will find in my text. My mother language is German and I'm not perfect in English. I'm not talking anymore because you want the link with all the commands. So just go to this link ELK + Pfsense and you will see my tutorial. Please read the whole text and make sure you have the same requirements.
I will be on holiday for the next 2 weeks so I will reply but maybe not so fast. If you have question go to the contact form of this website and then you can contact me. Please let me know if you find mistakes.
Thank you for your understanding.
Part 1 - Set up CentOS Tutorial online (German)
Today I finished part 1 of the Elasticsearch tutorial. It explains (in german) how to set up CentOS minimal for the ELK server. This is to do in advance. Next week I will publish part 2 which will include the installation of Elasticsearch. I know that the website is not optimized at the moment and some content doesn't look good. I have decided to put some content online related to some e-mails i have recieved about the tutorial.
