After following the <<filebeat-configuration,configuration steps>> in the
Getting Started, you might want to fine tune the behavior of Filebeat. This section
describes some common use cases for changing configuration options.
To configure {beatname_uc}, you edit the configuration file. For rpm and deb, youll find the default configuration file at
+/etc/{beatname_lc}/{beatname_lc}.yml+. There's also a full example configuration file at
+/etc/{beatname_lc}/{beatname_lc}.full.yml+ that shows all non-deprecated options. For mac and win, look in the archive that you extracted.
The following topics describe how to configure Filebeat:
* <<filebeat-configuration-details>>
* <<filtering-and-enhancing-data>>
* <<multiline-examples>>
* <<configuring-ingest-node>>
* <<using-environ-vars>>
* <<multiple-prospectors>>
* <<load-balancing>>
* <<yaml-tips>>
* <<regexp-support>>
