Kibana

Listening Port: 5602

Installation Path: /opt/kibana

Authenticated By: /etc/apache2/.htpasswd

Kibana is installed on the system with default parameters. It listens only locally on port 5601, which is unauthenticated. Apache creates a proxy to port 5601 via port 5602, which is authenticated with Basic Authentication.

The installer will create index mappings for logstash-, sweet_security, and sweet_security_alerts. The logstash- index mapping will be set as the default. Dashboards and visualizations will also be imported during installation.

Raspberry Pi Customizations

For ARM based architectures, nodejs needs to be removed and upgraded to work properly. Since version of Kibana 5.3.0, nodejs v6 is required. The installer will take care of all these steps, however you can follow these steps to manually (for documentation purposes) upgrade to the correct version of nodejs on the Raspberry Pi:

sudo apt-get –y remove nodejs-legacy nodejs nodered
wget https://nodejs.org/download/release/v6.10.2/node-v6.10.2-linux-armv6l.tar.gz
sudo mv node-v6.10.2-linux-armv6l.tar.gz /usr/local/node-v6.10.2-linux-armv6l.tar.gz
cd /usr/local
sudo tar -xzf node-v6.10.2-linux-armv6l.tar.gz --strip=1
sudo mv /opt/kibana/node/bin/node /opt/kibana/node/bin/node.orig
sudo mv /opt/kibana/node/bin/npm /opt/kibana/node/bin/npm.orig
sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/node /opt/kibana/node/bin/node
sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/npm /opt/kibana/node/bin/npm
