Can pfSense run inside same VM with the ELK stack?
This question is about the typical instructions of how to get pfSense logs to a database.
A common configuration seems to be to use the ELK (ElasticSearch, Logstash, Kibana) stack with pfSense for this purpose. But the steps for configuring this (such as these here, or these) generally instruct user to enable the Send log messages to remote syslog server option in pfSense. Or to run pfSense in a separate virtual machine.
Question I wanted to ask is, is it not possible run all these components on one and same unit/OS instance/VM?
