Setting up Kibana Dashboards
For all of the Beats, there are few sample dashboards already created. We can import those dashboards using a script provided with each beat. Let's take a look at dashboards for each beat.
PacketBeat
Import the dashboards <indexentry dbid="92615" content="Packetbeat:importing, for Kibana Dashboards">for Packetbeat by running the following command in the Packetbeat directory:
./scripts/import_dashboards -es http://192.168.0.110:9200

MetricBeat
Import the dashboards for MetricBeat by running the following command in the MetricBeat directory:
./scripts/import_dashboards -es http://192.168.0.110:9200...
