An Experiment with Filebeat and ELK Stack

ELK Stack is one of the best distributed systems to centralize lots of servers' logs. Filebeat is a log shipper that keeps track of the given logs and pushes them to the Logstash. Then logstash outputs these logs to elasticsearch. I am not going to explain how to install ELK Stack but experiment about sending multiple log types (document_type) using filebeat log shipper to logstash server.

So there is one server (agent) filebeat and apache http server installed on it. Agent is going to send syslogs, http access logs and http error logs to Logstash.

Here is the contents of the /etc/filebeat/filebeat.yml config file:

There is one server (backend) logstash installed on it.
Here is the contents of the files located in the /etc/logstash directory:
conf.d/02-beats-input.conf
conf.d/10-syslog-filter.conf
conf.d/30-elasticsearch-output.conf

Creating Multiple VLANs over Bonding Interfaces with Proper Routing on a Centos Linux Host

In this post, I am going to explain configuring multiple VLANs on a bond interface. First and foremost, I would like to describe the environment and give details of the infrastructure. The server has 4 Ethernet links to a layer 3 switch with names: enp3s0f0, enp3s0f1, enp4s0f0, enp4s0f1 There are two bond interfaces both configured as active-backup bond0, bond1 enp4s0f0 and enp4s0f1 interfaces are bonded as bond0. Bond0 is for making ssh connections and management only so corresponding switch ports are not configured in trunk mode. enp3s0f0 and enp3s0f1 interfaces are bonded as bond1. Bond1 is for data and corresponding switch ports are configured in trunk mode. Bond0 is the default gateway for the server and has IP address 10.1.10.11 Bond1 has three subinterfaces with VLAN 4, 36, 41. IP addresses are 10.1.3.11, 10.1.35.11, 10.1.40.11 respectively. Proper communication with other servers on the network we should use routing tables. There are three
